Namibia first described four cases of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) from infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in 1986 (GRN, 2002). Since then, many Namibians have continued to witness the multi-faceted impacts of HIV/AIDS in their households and neighbourhoods. By 2002, AIDS was the 'number one' killer, accounting for almost 51% of all deaths (GRN, 2002). In 2014, the overall prevalence of HIV in Namibia was 16.9% (GRN, 2014).
