This weeks marks the close of the 63rd Annual UN Department of Public Information Non-Governmental Organizations Conference, in Melbourne, Australia. Sr. Mary Owens and Protus Lumiti spoke on "Nyumbani Village: Responding to Children and Families
Living with HIV/AIDS."

The presentation was well received, with on participant noting that,

This charismatic, passionate sister with a wealth of knowledge about this population mentions that if social justice isn't a good enough reason for people to help perhaps being reminded that this newly bred super resistant strain will reach the developed world eventually - The Catholic nuns don't disappoint on offering threats!
