An Unfolded Ethiopian Special Poster (measures 16 1/2" x 23 3/4" [42 x 60 cm]) (Learn More) Betengna - Listen In!, the 2000s African poster designed for the people of Ethiopia, encouraging people to listen to Betengna. Betengna is a 20 minute radio series of self-narrated stories of the everyday lives of people living with HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia. Note that when AIDS gripped the world in 1981, local authorities, healthcare providers and governments quickly created health posters as a way to inform people about the new disease. These public health campaigns continue to this day, and the posters show the different tactics, images (some quite provocative) and messages used by various countries and health agencies in their attempts to educate people about the AIDS/HIV threat. Sub-Saharan Africa remains the hardest-hit region and HIV infection is becoming endemic in the region, which is home to just over 12% of the world's population but two-thirds of all people infected with HIV. Across Sub-Saharan Africa, more women are infected with HIV than men, with 13 women infected for every 10 infected men. This gender gap continues to grow. Throughout the region, women are being infected with HIV at earlier ages than men. Kenya has the joint fourth largest epidemic in the world, alongside Mozambique and Uganda with 1.6 million people living with HIV in 2016. In the same year, 36,000 people died from AIDS-related illnesses, while this is still high it has declined steadily from 64,000 in 2010. In recent decades Kenya has been a huge prevention success story in the region. It was one of the first to approve the use of PrEP and has led the way in providing VMMC. As a result, new infections have fallen dramatically in recent years. In 2016, 64% of people living with HIV in Kenya were accessing treatment. However treatment coverage among adolescents is much lower at approximately 24%. Although awareness of HIV and AIDS is high in Kenya, many people living with HIV face high levels of stigma and discrimination which prevent people accessing HIV services.
