Integrated Regional Information Networks - October 23, 2003
With assistance from the German Society for Technical Cooperation (GTZ), the Addis Ababa City Administration said the "Move" strategy would aim to improve HIV/AIDS education in schools and communities.
The mayor of Addis Ababa, Arkebe Equbay, said he was hopeful that the proposed project could bring about a "rapid and tangible behavioural change among the youth".
Research suggests that Addis Ababa has the highest concentration of people living with HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia.
The GZT project coordinator, Dr Peter Herzig, expressed the organisation's full technical support for the implementation of the strategy.
