For more information about Swaziland, take a look at some of the reports created
by our student volunteers, on:
Swaziland
.
Despite its small population size, Swaziland has the highest HIV prevalence in the world and has been greatly affected by the epidemic.
Over the last decade, Swaziland has made great efforts to turn around its epidemic with improved access to HIV testing services and the provision of free antiretroviral treatment to those who need it.
Swaziland has a dual epidemic of TB and HIV and the country has responded with successful dual test and treatment programs.
High levels of HIV stigma and discrimination in Swaziland remains a major barrier to people accessing HIV prevention services
