Edutainment vital tool in war on HIV/AIDS-Mogae

Chairperson of the Champions for an HIV Free Generation and former president, Festus Mogae applauded Soul City's OneLove HIV and AIDS campaign for employing edutainment in the fight against the epidemic.

Mogae hailed edutainment - a form of education which is designed to be entertaining, in order to keep people interested and engaged - as an effective mass communication tool that could help curb the spread of HIV and AIDS of which the Southern Africa region is the epicentre.

Mogae said the creative participation of the youth in the pursuit of an HIV free generation is by far impressive and that if creative abilities are fully employed to communicate the message, he was hopeful that there would be a change of behaviour.
