In May, 2006, Project Harambee sent a team of students (students) to Kenya to teach & hold counselling sessions with adults and adolescents on HIV/AIDS prevention, as well as nutrition, basic hygiene, & prenatal care.  The students learned far more than the Kenyans:  first, most of those we encountered knew as much about HIV prevention as we did.  Education is not the primary problem--is it lack of resources.  It is clear that community development and economic empowerment are tools essential for prevention of HIV.
