CMMB in partnership with the Churches Health Association of Zambia is building a program in which men will become part of the solution to preventing transmission of the HIV virus from mother to child. Over a three-year period, CMMB will work with 31 Church Health Institutions to address male attitudes and practices that negatively impact women attending antenatal clinics and accessing prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) services. Recognizing that men exert controlling influence over actions taken by their wives, female partners and children, Men
Taking Action will aggressively target men for education on prevention of HIV/AIDS transmission.
