DJ O'Neal's Switched On transcends barriers

Switched On covers a variety of topics from abstinence, delayed sexual debut, penile cancer, male circumcision, communication between couples, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and condom negotiation tactics, among others.

Discussions on issues concerning sex are extremely rare in Botswana society, which has compounded the severity of the HIV epidemic in the country. According to the National Campaign Plan on Multiple and Concurrent Partnership (MCP), conversations regarding sex - be it through the media, at Kgotla meetings (communal town meetings), at church gatherings, in schools, amongst families or between couples - are severely lacking.
