The report “Life Forces Life Choices: ‡Khomani San Action Research on HIV/AIDS”, was recently published as a result of an action-oriented research project conducted by the South African San Institute (SASI) in collaboration with the ‡Khomani San community and UNESCO.
The project, worked to identify current perceptions, knowledge and attitudes throughout the community concerning HIV and AIDS – in particular, traditional methods and ethno-botanic knowledge.
