Ubuntu health educators provide lifeskills education to vulnerable children and adolescents in 21 primary and high schools to prevent HIV infection. Ubuntu's lifeskills classes focus on the development of knowledge, attitudes, values and skills needed to make and act on the most appropriate and positive health-related decisions.

The vast majority of the children in our schools are from high-poverty informal settlements with high rates of sexual abuse and rape. We reach 15,300 of these learners with lifeskills lessons every 10 days. We provide frontline counselling for children who are living with or at-risk for HIV, in child-headed households, affected by HIV/AIDS or victims of rape and sexual abuse.
