This Friday 9 May is Team BEN Namibia’s
first public appearance. The team is promoting having an HIV test
during the government's National Testing Day campaign, which is being
held in cooperation with mobile voluntary counselling and testing
units from the Ministry of Health and New Start Centre. People who
come for testing at the VCT mobile units at Maerua Mall, the
Polytechnic of Namibia, UNAM, the UN Plaza, Goreangab, and Okahandja
Park can enter their name into the draw to win one of six new
bicycles. Team BEN Namibia works to raise HIV/AIDS awareness,
advocate prevention, encourage voluntary HIV/AIDS counselling and
testing, and promote healthy life style choices, especially for the
Namibian youth. “Know your HIV Status. Get fit, be focused. Do
sports, not drugs” are the messages the team members convey to the
Namibian youth.
