A Faith-based Response to HIV in Southern Africa
Author: Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS.Publisher: World Health Organization
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
While there is a general acknowledgement within the church itself that the Church was initially slow to respond to the magnitude of the problem of HIV and AIDS, during the recent past, as the effects of HIV and AIDS within the congregations and communities of the church have become progressively more evident, the Catholic Church has emerged as an increasingly central role-player in a range of initiatives to combat the pandemic. This publication describes the work of the 'Choose to Care' initiative and the way it has been successfully scaled-up through the diocesan and parish network so that programmes are formed by local needs but work with common guidelines and can draw on central support.
On the AIDS Pandemic and Its Impact on Our People
Author: The Church and AIDS in Africa
Author: Amy Stephenson PattersonPublisher: Firstforumpress
ISBN:
Category : AIDS (Disease)
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
This book explores the role of the Christian church, broadly and diversely defined as both institutions and communities of believers (although the focus of the analysis is on institutional behaviors), in the politics of HIV/AIDS in Africa. The author creates a typology of church AIDS actions--no response; early, narrow response; early, broad response; late, narrow response; and late, broad response--and seeks explanations for where churches fall within this typology in terms of institutional resources, organizational structures, relations with the state, and global networks.
