TRANSCRIPT
"I'm HIV positive. I was very ill but, with sisters help, I've gained 15kg. I'm still very weak so I'm in charge of drying the fish. I'm so happy to be earning a living again."
Lora, northern Kenya
“Being positive does not mean not being able to work. This group are so succesful they are employing others, who suddenly look up to them - despite them being HIV positive - so stigma is going down. It’s a real success."
Sister Maria Antonia, Diocese of Marsabit
