STRENGTHENING PARTNERSHIP
>> Monday, October 19, 2009
The recently signed Memorandum of Understanding between Star for Life and the Department of Health and Education in KwaZulu-Natal asserts our commitment to work closely with national government in countries where Star for Life is active.
”This is a breakthrough for Star for Life, enabling a wider implementation of the project in KwaZulu-Natal in order to contribute in the battle against the HIV/AIDS epidemic”, say Christin and Dan Olofsson, founders of Star for Life.This cooperation between Star for Life and the provincial government in KwaZulu-Natal ensures the sustainability of the project and affirms the success of the programme so far. We recognise the importance of positive relations with regional and national governments and this partnership is a significant step forward and will benefit the work of Star for Life in South Africa.
“This Memorandum of Understanding is proof of our commitment to work closely with Star for Life in combating HIV/AIDS in the province”, says Dr. Zweli Mkhize, Premier of Kwazulu-Natal.Star for Life has established itself as a constructive and legitimate NGO in the province, and will continue to build relationships with both governments and representatives from the private sector.
