The Elandsdoorner program focuses on educating teenagers about the dangers of HIV and AIDS, ideally before they become sexually active themselves. Five teams of young people of the same age are currently visiting schools in the region and using plays to provide information about the virus and its spread. In subsequent workshops, they discuss sexuality, the risk of infection, incest and sexual permissiveness with the pupils. Through regular information campaigns in villages and communities, the AIDS education programme also makes an important contribution to the fight against stigmatization and discrimination of those affected.
