Health Enhancement through Accessible Research and Theory

STILL WATERS has conducted a baseline study on the HIV/AIDS situation and interventions in QIC/UEC churches and institutions. We intend to continue research on different issues related to HIV/AIDS/Reproductive health for both internal and external purposes.

Goal: Provide sound evidence base for appropriate HIV/AIDS and reproductive health interventions and programming.

Sustainable Health Initiative for Community Enhancement

We believe that dealing with the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Nigeria is not just about improving people’s health status during the lifetime of our projects, but purposefully ensuring that local entities of our communities maintain our efforts over time, independent of external support. SHICE is primarily concerned with building and supporting the capacity of Community AIDS Response Teams (CARTs) in churches and theological communities.

Goal: Sustainable community initiatives towards behaviour change for better health and integral community development.

Two Fish-Five Loaves Funds

One of the impacts of AIDS in our communities is the difficulty of meeting the most basic needs of children (including orphans and vulnerable children). Thousands of children live with sick or dying parents, children are being raised by children and most of these children no longer attend school, lose their homes and inheritances when their parents die, and fall prey to abuse and exploitation. 2Fish5Loaves seeks to provide assistance to such children to attend school, have access to food, health care, shelter and to safe and healthy adult relationships.

Goal: Providing hope and opportunities for improved standard of living to orphans and vulnerable children.

Foot Steps of Moses Project

In Nigeria, it is not common to see compassion and advocacy for HIV/AIDS related issues come from the church and its leadership. Footsteps of Moses project encourage leaders to make HIV/AIDS a priority within their sphere of pulpit ministry, evangelism or community care experience.

Community Strength:
Developing Local Capacities for Improved Community HIV/AIDS Stigma Reduction Efforts

One of the persistent HIV/AIDS related problems in Nigeria today is stigma and discrimination at all levels of life, including the church. This has resulted in undermining prevention efforts and frightening away people from going for HIV test or from accessing care and support services in their local communities. Through Community Strength project we seek to help communities understand, reduce and overcome HIV-related stigma and discrimination.

Goal: Strengthening communities’ capacity to understand, reduce, and overcome HIV-related stigma and discrimination.
