Economic empowerment and HIV vulnerability reduction along transport corridors in Southern Africa

The regional programme will contribute to the Southern Africa Development Community’s goal of “controlling and reversing the HIV and AIDS epidemic as showed by the Millennium Development goals and Universal Access commitments by 2015” through the world of work. This goal will be achieved through the following outcomes: • Policy makers and promoters make evidence based decisions to mainstream the economic empowerment model into HIV and AIDS regional and national agendas • Increased availability of social and economic services to prevent and mitigate the impact of HIV and AIDS in selected transport corridors • Increased access to effective HIV and AIDS prevention and impact mitigation services provided by targeted operators (members organizations such as cooperatives, informal associations, MSMEs) along selected transport corridors
