Likewise, HIV positive people were highly discriminated and stigmatized from any social and cultural engagements that fueled their physical death and exacerbate psychological destructions which resulted in myriad loses of life and resources in the region. Having cognizant of this critical challenge in the operational area, a group of committed young students has initiated the establishment of Beza Youth Anti HIV/AIDS and Reproductive Health Club. The word “Beza” in Amharic is equally translated in English as “being sacrificed to redeem someone” in which these youngsters have determined to confront the problem and save their people. Thus, Beza has been chosen to be the name of the club that would represent the commitment of the founding members and its constituency since its inception. In doing so BPDO grown up in to a broader association and finally became a registered local implementing partner.
