Making HIV an election issue

People living with HIV and AIDS in Zambia want to make HIV an election issue.

Through TALC they have produced a questionnaire for all candidates standing in the September 28, 2006, elections. This includes Presidential, Parliamentary and Local Councillor candidates.

Unfortunately, not everyone thinks HIV is important enough to be an election issue. Recently Dr Chituwo from MMD was quoted in The Post newspaper saying that HIV was not an election issue.

But the paper's editor disagreed, saying that TALC was right to get HIV on the election agenda as it is an issue that affects all Zambians.

For a copy of the questionnaire or more information about how the campaign is going, visit the Campaign page.
