Welcome to the AIDS Foundation of South Africa website. We are happy to report some important developments that will help us to keep you in touch with efforts to combat HIV/AIDS in the country, the continent and beyond.
The website is now managed entirely in-house, which means we can update it on a daily basis. Check in regularly for news, analysis and links to other sources of useful information on critical issues relating to HIV/AIDS.
We have also made the site interactive, so that you can give us your views and comments, and participate in web-based discussions, polls and surveys. Click here to take part in our latest survey.
We also have a new portal for our Culture and Health Programme, where you will find news, research, photos and features on innovative work with rural men, initiation schools, San communities, traditional healers and sexual minorities. Read more.

Traditional, or African indigenous healers are the primary -- often the only -- medical carers for 85% of the African population in South Africa. The need to involve healers in HIV and AIDS management is widely recognised, largely as a result of AFSA's training interventions, since 1995. However, there is not equivalent recognition among biomedical practitioners of the knowledge and expertise of traditional healers.
