RFI: Role of Politics, Culture and Religion on Sexual Health
------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Afro-netters!

I am a gynecologist/obstetrician working as a project coordinator of 
an HIV/AIDS project in Namibia. I am preparing a lecture for doctors 
on the role of politics, culture and religion on sexual health. I 
would appreciate it very much if you could tell about your experi-
ences about the role of these to the sexual health of the people in 
your community or country. 

Are politics, culture and religion protecting or threatening the sex-
ual health of communities and individuals according to your experi-
ence? Do you have suggestions how these could be used as tools in a 
positive way? Of course I would also appreciate it very much if you 
know of any surveys or research done on this subject.

Please send your comments straight to me:
<maija.palander@tamgyn.inet.fi>

With thanks and kindest regards
