The fight against tuberculosis may not be far from over, but there are organisations striving to eliminate it. One of them is ADPP-Mozambique, which works in the areas of health, education, sustainable agriculture and the environment.
\r\nLast year alone, more than 30,000 people received support to complete treatment for the disease in the provinces of Nampula, Zamb\u00e9zia, Sofala, Tete and Maputo.
\r\nThis is at least the information contained in the annual report-2023 released recently in Maputo by ADPP's executive director, Birgit Holm.
\r\nThe document states that another 1.9 million have benefited from screening, 6716 children through mobile nurse services and 3980 have started receiving preventive treatment for tuberculosis.<\/p>\r\n
MALARIA AND HIV<\/strong><\/p>\r\n The report indicates that in 2023 the malaria prevention programmes in the provinces of Nampula and Niassa reached more than 680,000 community members and 406,000 primary school children received information on preventing the disease.

\r\nWith regard to HIV, ADPP implemented six projects in the southern and northern regions, benefiting 673,215 people with literacy and support in matters of sexual and reproductive health.
\r\nIt says that stigma and discrimination remain major barriers to HIV prevention and adherence to treatment, aggravated by inadequate literacy about the disease and community help.
\r\nADPP-Mozambique has been working alongside communities in the country for 42 years, implementing projects based on a holistic person-to-person approach.<\/p>\r\n
