Inspiration
It’s been six years since the world has embraced the sustainable development goals of the United Nations. Via diverse SDGs they create awareness and support thematic issues such as poverty, technology, and science. Unfortunately, there are still many challenges and problems that are being faced. For instance, in Africa there are more than 25 million people living with HIV which makes it a leading cause of death among women around the reproductive age from 15-44 years old. Globally there were more than 1.4 million pregnant women with HIV in 2017. Almost 86% of the estimated 160.000 children newly infected were in the WHO African Region.
