From RISK to ACTION: Women and HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia

Nearly 60% of HIV+ individuals in Ethiopia are women. Gender bias and the biology of transmission make women more vulnerable to infection. Poverty, lack of access to education, and violence against women increase their risk. This film profiles the connection between gender and HIV/AIDS, as well as the work of leaders in education and policy change to improve the status of women.

Heartbreaking story.

Rape is about POWER. Men think they are entitled to do anything they want to women.

Lack of education & health care & poverty significantly contribute to many women's misery. This is a new beginning, very informative & eye opening. Information is knowledge and power & this valuable information should reach many women. This is a women struggle & it is time to say enough is enough. PEACE
