As HIV rises, Uganda activist tries to stop AIDS

In this photo taken Sunday, Nov. 9, 2014, a dozen children perform a traditional courtship dance from eastern Uganda as part of a platform for changing attitudes among youth using dance, drama and popular hip hop music, at the Treasure Life Center in the Kamwokya slum of Kampala, Uganda. As World AIDS Day is marked on Dec. 1, Uganda and many other African countries are continuing their battle against HIV and AIDS, and Ugandan street activists like 26-year-old Hood Katende are trying to use music and drama to stem a troubling resurgence of HIV, which now infects more than 500 young women between the ages of 15 and 24 each week, according to the Uganda AIDS Commission.
