Star for Life (SFL) is a South African registered Not-For-Profit organisation. It was launched in 2005 as school-based HIV and AIDS prevention programme that empowers youth with information and motivation to take decisions that will reduce the risk of them contracting HIV, with a desire to build attitudes and change behaviors in youth in ways that empower them to realize their dreams of a better future. We are proud that we demonstrated success of SFL work in Kwa-Zulu Natal province of South Africa where we have provided intervention since 2006. In our strategy for the year 2010 to 2013, we have made deliberate efforts to work not only in South Africa, but to roll out our strategy in Namibia and Zambia, on the basis of country needs.

  • Provision of antiretroviral therapy in Zambia relies on NGOs, churches and communities.
  • Zambia seeks to integrate AIDS education into more parts of the school curriculum.
