Visiting European Union delegation leader, Susan Tomas, told Zambian authorities in May to work with the Church in the dissemination of information regarding sexual and reproductive health, as the Church has an important role to play.
After a tour of reproductive health projects supported by the European Union, she also asked the Church to intervene and help those projects in educating the public on sexual and reproductive health.
This takes place as the Church in Africa is responsible for the greater part of the distribution of medicine and antiretroviral treatments. In some countries, the Church is responsible for up to 50% of services to those suffering from HIV/AIDs.
