The Southern African Development Community (SADC) Secretariat has donated an HIV and AIDS Cross-Border Initiative (CBI) wellness clinic to the Ministry of Health and Wellness at the Tlokweng bordergate. It is the second of its type in the country whereas the first is at Kazungula.

Addressing the gathering this week, the acting director of Social and Human Development at the SADC Secretariat, Lomthandazo Mavimbela said the objective of the CBI was to reduce HIV and AIDS, Tuberculosis (TB) and Malaria-related morbidity, mortality and incidence of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) amongst mobile populations (especially sex workers, long distance truck drivers, migrant workers and communities around the border).

“In order to ensure smooth implementation of the CBI, each of the 12 SADC member States signed a Memorandum of Understanding, with the SADC Secretariat. In the Memoranda of Understanding, member States agreed to provide the wellness clinics with medicines and other supplies.”
