TCE – Total Control of the Epidemic
Only people can liberate themselves from AIDS – The Epidemic
On this simple line HUMANA PEOPLE TO PEOPLE developed a people’s liberation system to be put in place in most parts of Africa to gain – area by area – total control of the epidemic.
Basically it builds upon a group of 50 “locals” employed for the three years it takes to “liberate” an area with 100.000 people under the leadership of Humana People to People.
The idea then is this:
Only the people themselves will be able to set each other free from the threats of the epidemic. It has to become a collective affair. Everyone involved to his or her capacity. Inspired by a possible positive outcome from this effort, by the groups performing in their neighbourhood and by their neighbours.
The time is ripe for this collective effort, for the liberation from the epidemic by the people for the people.
TCE was first started in Zimbabwe in year 2000
Since its start, TCE has reached 2.5 million people in 4 countries in Southern Africa, namely Botswana, South Africa, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.
TCE changes people’s lives. Field Officers themselves have changed their lifestyle and the way of looking at the AIDS epidemic during the whole process of mobilisation. Total Control of the Epidemic is more than dissemination of correct HIV/AIDS information. It goes to the core, where each and every individual has to make a personal plan for how to reduce the risk of infection with HIV.
