Indigenous Religion and HIV and AIDS Management in Zimbabwe

The study analyses the Shona cultural measures to arrest the HIV and AIDS epidemic in Zimbabwe. To some extent, conventional therapy to the cure of HIV and AIDS is still flawed though some significant progress has been made in coming up with life-prolonging Anti-retroviral drugs. We contend that discourses about mitigating the AIDS epidemic must take the cultural-epidemiological approach to compliment efforts that modern medical technology has done towards finding a cure to the epidemic.
