SADC Best Practice Zambia Mboole Rural Development Initiative (MRDI) in Zambia

The Member States of SADC have been responding to the HIV epidemic for more than two decades. To provide a systematic working definition for a SADC HIV and AIDS Best Practice, and standardising documentation methodology, the SADC Framework for Developing and Sharing Best Practice on HIV and AIDS was designed. In line with this aim, SADC in 2007, commissioned the documentation of Best Practices in four Member States: Mauritius, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe, where Best Practices had been identified through a comprehensive selection process involving Governments and National Co-ordinating bodies. The documentation of these Best Practices will stimulate and encourage the exchange of ideas, and increase collaboration and co-ordination among the multiple actors and institutions responding to the epidemic across the region. It is against this backdrop that the Mboole Rural Development Initiative (MRDI) has been documented as a Best Practice.
