Explorations in the Cultural History of AIDS

III

International Conference

México City, 9 - 12 December 2006

 

Aids and Underdevelopment

In recent years underdevelopment and culture have become the greatest influence in the spread of aids in Africa. Underdevelopment by means of Poor leadership. Creating uncertainty and fear amongs the population. Culturaly, by means of believe .

So long as our leaders do not analyse the social problems and tackle them correctly, we cannot achieve prefarable goal in our fight to surpress the further development of Aids. Leadership have in the past circulated within a group of people who seat on a table to make decision. Creating possibilities where choices can be that which will benefit individuals rather than the nation. By means of letting this pass away, there is an atmosphere of: Surpression, Intimidation, Supremacy. Because only a few fraction of the population can achieve these status quo, the majority of the population is sent back to their “shells”. Thereby occopying themselves with activities that ends up putting not only the perpetuators but the world at risk. That is why we cannot seat and cross our hands as if there is nothing happening.

On the otherhand, cultures have become the broadest complexity in defining the nomes and responsibilities of the different cultural or ethnic groups. The complexity in believe and reasons for several activities or practices are enough reason to put all of us at risk.

Aids and underdevelopment are two social factor that grows almost simultanously together. If the world cannont define the prons and cons of these “delimas”. Analysing in detail every single factor, then we are not sure of acheving our utmost goal for the millenium.
