HERO for BOTSWANA Mission 2013
HERO for BOTSWANA Mission 2013
# HERO for BOTSWANA# The impact of the HIV epidemic in a society is heavily influenced by the social, political, demographic, and economic circumstances in which people live. The case of Botswana In Sub-Saharan Africa, Botswana is well known on two counts; first as a fast growing economy due to the vast reserve of diamonds discovered in the 1960's as well as a country with one of the highest prevalence of HIV/AIDS estimated at 17.6 % in 2009. This therefore makes HIV arguably the biggest challenge facing this emerging economy , in the 21st century. With the concerted effort of the international community and donors, Botswana is trying hard to reduce the high prevalence rate of HIV and AIDS, recorded at 17.6 % making an approximate (1 in 5 people infected in the country) and has made great enroads in the fight agaisnst HIV, however it is not out of the woods yet. The primary cause of HIV, and indeed many other sexual transmitted infection, as noted all over the world, is that many people are still having casual unprotected sexual intercourse. Condoms can be very expensive, unaffordable and therefore inaccessble to many particularly in developing economies. This is counterecative to the fight against many sexual transmitted disease including HIV. Hero Condoms is trying to aid in reduce the incidents and hence the prevalence of HIV and AIDS in Botswana by availing free high quality using condoms. Hero stands as a socially responsible company with a moral obligation to give back where it matters the most, availing high quality , internationally acclaimed condoms to orninary Batswana at no cost. "This is an absolute great initiative and idea. We are definitely interested in what Hero condoms can do to help the fight against HIV" it adds to the concert effort in helping to achieve our goal of " no new infections by year 2016 " Dr Lebelonyane, The Director for HIV care and Prevention, Ministry of health Botswana. This company has chosen to go where no one else has been. Not only giving out condoms for free but rather supporting and finding ways to be target specific, helping making it possible for the product to reach the intended cohort. By having great initiatives like Bus campaigns, availing hero condoms in bar and bottle stores, shabeens , street barber shops free of charge , as well as having packages that impart knowledge and sensitize people to the issue of HIV , Hero condoms helps to keep the likely hood of acquiring HIV in people's minds and thus encouraging them to take precautions. "I'm very excited about the potential of what Hero Condoms will do In these country, we welcome you with open arms ... Dr Tebogo Madidimalo WHO -- Botswana "We are very thankful for great initiatives like this one represented by Hero condoms" Ambassador of Botswana to Australia H.E Molosiwa Selepeng , keep up the good work....

Highlights of Africa Rising
On Friday, September 21, 2012, on a beautiful, bright and sunny morning at the Washington Convention Center in the heart of Washington, DC, people gathered for Africa Rising, a daylong forum on African political, economic, security, health and development issues.
A highlight was the 90-minute first panel of the day, “Africa’s Growing Economies”, moderated by Rosa Whitaker, President and CEO of the Whitaker Group. Panelists were Tebelelo Seretse, Ambassador of Botswana to the U.S.; Jay Ireland, President and CEO of GE Africa; and Makhtar Diop, World Bank Vice President for Africa. Ambassador Seretse raised one of the panel's most important themes, stating: “I am shocked when Europe has mismanagement and corrupted the economy, it is called mismanagement. When it is Africa, it is called corruption.”
The event was co-hosted by Congresswoman Karen Bass, representing Los Angeles, California, and members of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation for the Africa BrainTrust. Congresswoman Bass is the senior Democrat on the House Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, and Human Rights.

The Minute Tour: Harare
In August 2010, I traveled to southern Africa for a cost-of-living study. Over a five week stretch, I went to Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia and Angola. Harare was one of my more interesting locations. The last time my company sent a surveyor to capture data was in 2008. Supermarket shelves were empty. The economy was in shambles. Unofficial figures put annual inflation at 516 quintillion per cent and prices were doubling every 1.3 days. A Z$100 trillion banknote was printed just before the country abandoned their own currency for the U.S. Dollar and South African Rand.

Prayercast | Namibia
Namibia, who’s anthem deems them, “The Land of the Brave”, began a grueling fight for freedom in 1966 led by the South-West Africa People's Organization. It was two decades before South Africa agreed to remove their administration from Namibia in compliance with a UN peace plan. More than 20 years after the treacherous war for freedom, the country has begun the healing process.
A semi-desert nation in southern Africa, Namibia is bordered by Botswana, Angola, and South Africa. With an extremely hot and dry climate and extended periods of drought, Namibians frequently lack freshwater resources. The nation is also the fourth highest HIV/AIDS-infected country in the world, and life expectancy for Namibians is less than 60 years. Rich in diamonds, zinc, uranium, and other natural resources, much of the nation’s economy relies on the mining industry. As a result, Namibia became the first African country to include environmental protection in its constitution. While the nation’s natural resources are abundant, more than 35% of Namibians are without work, leaving many of the people in great poverty.
Although more than 90% of the population is Christian, afro-spiritualism has crept its way into the church, leading to syncretistic worship practices. However, a prayer movement is sweeping the nation and building community among Christians of several denominational backgrounds. The San, the Himba, and the peoples of the Kavango and Caprivi Strip are the least evangelized of Namibia, and missionaries need wisdom and discernment to develop specific approaches to reach these people groups. Purity in worship and in the Church must be restored in the lives of Namibian Christians. The deeper their walk with God, the brighter the light of Christ will shine through them, attracting those who have not heard or do not yet believe.
