本文试图以莱索托为例，建立信仰的人对全球艾滋病毒流行病的反应的关键贡献。在这方面，特别关注莱索托选定的宗教组织的工作，评估它们通过教育、保健、发展和社会服务活动在基层协调有效的艾滋病毒和艾滋病行动的能力。关于信仰参与这一领域的水平和质量的实证评估和调查结果确立了本文的基本前提，即信仰组织正在贡献能量，专业知识和经验，以实现全球承诺的承诺，以促进艾滋病毒预防，治疗和支持的普及。虽然这篇文章特别侧重于莱索托的情况下，其巨大的影响，模拟研究和方法在撒哈拉以南非洲地区的突出。
This article attempts to establish the key contribution by people of faith to the global HIV pandemic response, using Lesotho as a case study. Particular focus is paid to the work of selected religious organisations in Lesotho in this context, assessing their capacities to coordinate an effective HIV and AIDS action at the grassroots levels through education, health care, development, and social service activities. Empirical evaluations and findings regarding the level and quality of faith-based engagement in this field establish the basic premise of this article, namely, that faith-based organisations are contributing energy, expertise, and experience in order to achieve the commitment of the global commitment to advance universal access to HIV prevention, treatment, and support. Although the article is particularly focused on the Lesotho context, its tremendous implications for simulated studies and approaches across Sub-Saharan Africa are accentuated.
