Abstract:
Criança, Família e Desenvolvimento (CFD) means children, family and development. CFD is an NGO in Mozambique that focuses on early childhood
development rooted in community action. Over the last two or three years, much of its work has turned to working with children and families in an HIV/AIDS context. Many of the communities that CFD works with are located in the rural areas along the ‘Maputo Corridor’, which, with an estimated prevalence of over 20%, has become the country’s
HIV/AIDS hot spot. This feature is drawn from a telephone interview with Agostinho Mamade, Director of CFD; and from Integrating HIV/AIDS
Education into Early Childhood Development. A Curriculum of Living Well: for children, families and educators (2002), Associação Criança, Família e Desenvolvimento, Maputo, Mozambique; and the CD-ROM on the HIV/AIDS work of the Associação Criança, Família e Desenvolvimento, produced by Louise Vaz, Hine Fellow, Centre for Documentary Studies, Duke University, USA.
