AHF supported Women's empowerment event at UKZN Howard college on the 20th of August 2026.

The purpose of the event was to empower young women with information on s*xual reproductive health and rights, and mental health because young women are a majority of people who get infected with HIV and get pregnant before their complete school and universities.

AHF provided health services and condom distribution and education. A total of 38, of which 36 were female students, 26 syphilis tests were done. There were 5 STIs that were diagnosed and treated and a total of 11 520 Icon and love condoms were distributed.

Some conversations are easy.
"What are we having for dinner?"
"How was your day?"
Others are much harder.
"Can we use a condom?"

For many people, asking that question can be intimidating, not because they don't understand the importance of protection, but because they're worried about how their partner will react.

Using a condom isn't about mistrust. It's about making a shared decision to protect each other's health. Every relationship should be a safe space for honest conversations about s*xual health.

In its early stages, it can appear as a painless sore or cause no symptoms at all, making it easy to pass on without knowing. If left untreated, syphilis can lead to serious health complications affecting the brain, heart and other organs.

Getting tested is important, but prevention is even better. Using a condom every time you have s*x can significantly reduce your risk of syphilis and other STIs. Protect your health, protect your future, and don't be afraid to have the conversation about condom use.

Come get tested at one of our nearest AHF clinics: https://www.aidshealth.org/global/south-africa/

Many women still find it difficult to talk to their partners about condoms. Some worry their partner will think they don't trust them, others fear rejection or judgement.

But protecting your health should never be something you're embarrassed about.
Condoms remain one of the most effective ways to prevent HIV, s*xually transmitted infections and unintended pregnancies.

Choosing to use a condom isn't about distrust, it's about respect for yourself and your partner.

We are proud to introduce a Pharmacy Dispensing Unit (PDU) to support patients in the remote rural areas of Dutywa, Eastern Cape, making it easier and more convenient to collect their medication closer to home.

Serving patients across three facilities, the PDU will help improve patient experience and medication adherence while reducing long waiting times at health facilities.

The global debt crisis is a human rights issue. When unfair debt payments are prioritized over people, life-saving programs for climate resilience, access to education, and universal healthcare suffer, leaving 3.4 billion people without the resources needed to live with dignity. Much of this system is tied to financial institutions and lending structures rooted in wealthier economies—making reform a shared responsibility. The U.S. and Europe can play a major role.

The Freedom from Debt campaign is calling for practical solutions:
✔A Borrowers’ Forum to strengthen developing countries’ negotiating power
✔Debt relief during public health and climate crises to protect lives
✔A 1% AI solidarity levy to invest in resilience

Stronger systems abroad mean a more stable future for all.

Investing in young people is investing in a healthier future. 🌍❤️

In 2024, 370,000 young people ages 15–24 acquired HIV globally, including 145,000 adolescents ages 15 to 19, and 93,000 children ages 14 and younger acquired HIV in 2025. Yet as health budgets shrink, the programs and services young people need are increasingly at risk.

We already know what works: youth-friendly HIV and s*xual and reproductive health services, comprehensive s*xuality education, and safe spaces where young people can learn, ask questions, and be heard.

Through programs like Girls Act and Boys2Men, AHF is helping young people access knowledge, build supportive peer networks, and become advocates for healthier communities.

This , we’re calling for continued investment in young people—and a future where every young person has the knowledge, resources, and support they need to thrive.
