The 2-Grow project worked to improve the quality of life of rural people living with HIV and AIDS in Mpumalanga, the North West and Limpopo. Acceptance and disclosure are complex concepts in the midst of stigma, poverty, limited resources and lack of knowledge.
This collaboration with people living with HIV and AIDS was through skills-based training in communication and advocacy strategies, training in sustainable food-gardening methods and the creation of peer support groups to promote acceptance and disclosure. Social capital was strengthened throughout the project by working with families, friends, neighbours and other support networks.
