The German ambassador, Mr. Klaus Dieter Düxmann, is visiting the Teso sub region, in Uganda tomorrow (11 October 2011).
During the two day visit, the Ambassador will launch the HIV work-place policy of the Soroti Municipal Council.
The HIV work-place policy should raise awareness about the challenges HIV positive employees face and should lead to a discrimination free work environment.
GIZ, the executing agency of German Development Cooperation, provides HIV tests and medical treatment as well as counselling to the district.
The launch of the work place policy will take place in Mayor’s Garden in Soroti. The Mayor, LC V, town clerk and members of the health department are expected to attend.
