Luena

The provincial management of Family and Woman Promotion in eastern Moxico appealed, last Monday, in Luena, on youth to promote activities against HIV/AIDS, for being a serious threat to the society.

The call is part of a message addressed, on the occasion of 14th April, Angolan Youth's Day, where the province women are worried, for the fact that the disease of the century is killing thousands of young people.

For this purpose the document advises for the awareness of the population aiming at the prevention from the spread of HIV/AIDS.

Fidelity and use of condoms are, among others, the attitudes pointed out in the message that must be transmitted and practised in order to save lives.

"The youth is seen as the inner force for the country's political, economic, social and cultural development, thus they should answer the demands of the moment with their knowledge and intelligence", reads the note.
