Namibia: Youth with big hearts

Some youths in Okakarara are beating their unemployment woes by caring for bed-ridden AIDS patients. Under the name Home Based Care Givers, the 22, mainly youth, started giving care after realising that people living with HIV/AIDS are discriminated against and stigmatised. On a daily basis, they walk some 30 km to get to their bed-ridden clients spread around Okondjatu, Otjituuo and sometimes Okamatapati.
