| Organization Description: |
KEBA Africa’s engagement in Ghana began in 2004 when a partnership was established with Aid for AIDS Africa, the Ghana Social Marketing Foundation and CFAO Group of companies. Projects implementation started in November 2004 and since that time, KEBA Africa has successfully managed more than 15 projects with local and international funding from the ILO, World Bank, DFID, Ghana AIDS Commission, National AIDS Control Programme, CONCERN Universal, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Education, CFAO, Cadbury, SHELL among others. The main emphasis has been on HIV and STI prevention, promotion of HIV testing and counselling (HTC), HIV/AIDS treatment, care and support. Currently, KEBA Africa is implementing the community mobilization and counselling and testing (VCT) component of an HIV/AIDS intervention in Greater Accra, Western, Ashanti and Brong Ahafo region as part of the Global Fund Round 8 Project (GFR8). The global fund was set up in 2002 as an independent financial instrument to augment funding of country programmes for HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria in developing countries. For this project, KEBA Africa is equipping selected CBOs with the skills to implement community mobilization activities at the district level. KEBA Africa supervised these CBOs to further train volunteers to implement interpersonal communication activities. Specifically KEBA Africa has been tasked with the objectives among other things to help reduce new HIV infections, ensure healthy sexual lifestyles, promote the uptake of counselling and testing and engage people to show accepting attitudes towards persons living with HIV/AIDS. The project is being implemented at the district level in close collaboration with District Directors of Health Services, HIV/AIDS Focal Persons and District Assemblies.
KEBA Africa is also the lead consultant in the development and implementation of Accra Polytechnic and Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning HIV/AIDS workplace policies. The HIV/AIDS workplace policy is intended to guide and/or provide explan |
