Abstract

Welcome to the first issue of BVV News, an occasional newsletter about the BVV programme taking place in communities across Botswana, Namibia and Swaziland. In this newsletter we will be sharing stories about experiences with the BVV programme in different communities. In particular, we will share stories about what has worked well, about new approaches that have been tried out for sharing BVV, and about how the BVV programme has affected people and communities.

Description

BVV stands for Beyond Victims and Villains. It's an audio-drama in eight episodes, covering important but often sensitive topics like violence against women, sexual violence, abuse of children, transactional sex, trans-generational sex, and how all this increases the risk of HIV infection. It also covers why some people are unable to make choices to protect themselves against HIV infection.
