Address by Mrs. Graça Machel at the ADF 2000 Leadership and Social Mobilization on HIV/AIDS in Africa. Mrs. Machel, on her remarks highlighted that, this is a conference on HIV/AIDS and leadership. It is a great credit to the conference organizers that we see so many different kinds of leaders gathered together here. In addition, as leaders, each of you has important, if sometimes different roles to play. Individually, we must demonstrate the qualities of courage, integrity and respect for others. Collectively our governments must recognize that leadership means abandoning rhetoric and taking action. Young people are key. They are the group that are being infected at the greatest rates. They are the key to prevention and often shoulder the greatest burden of care. They are the group that inherits this catastrophe. Yet we continue to marginalize them, not recognizing their strengths and not building on their potential. This conference is a huge opportunity. Let us use it to its full advantage and make sure that it does not become another ‘talking shop’, but that our people can look back and say that the ADF 2000 was a turning point in the struggle against AIDS in Africa.
