What inspires you to work in the HIV field?

My inspiration is to help in information dissemination to young people on HIV prevention and advocacy work, especially engaging duty bearers and policy makers, demanding access to various health services, especially to the less disadvantaged in our communities.

What are your goals as an IAS change maker?

My goals are to be able to: enhance my skills and knowledge in the field of HIV and AIDS programming; share best practices and learn from colleagues; and advocate and enhance my facilitation, leadership and advocacy skills.
