Motsumi speaks on HIV and AIDS

Tuesday, December 02, 2008

Below is the message from the Minister of Health Lesego Motsumi on the commemoration of World Aids Day yesterday.

Today marks the 20th anniversary of World AIDS Day. Over the last 20 years we have dedicated December 1st as the day in which we all pause to reflect on the global fight against HIV/AIDS and re-dedicate ourselves to achieving an AIDS free world.

The International theme for 2008 is "STOP AIDS, KEEP THE PROMISE". It is from this that in Botswana for this World AIDS Day we have derived the theme "LEADERSHIP: Behavior Change is my key responsibility to STOP HIV and AIDS".
