SWAZILAND
"Swaziland is classified as a low middle-income country, with a relatively high level of income per capita. However, poverty still remains a major challenge for the country, reflecting the underlying skewed distribution of income. It is estimated that about 66% of Swazis live below the poverty line. Food insecurity in the country is one of the main areas of concern. The HIV/AIDS epidemic has increased at alarming rates over the past 10 years pausing a major threat to Human Development". Taken from the United Nations Millenium Development Goals Country Report, December 2003
In 2007, the Government of Swaziland is demonstrating a commitment to expanding HIV/AIDS activities, including access to anti-retroviral therapy, education and support services.
