Its establishment was initiated by a group of enthusiastic youngsters whom their hearts were touched by the HIV epidemic which was a prime cause to the death of countless number of youth and children.
During that time, discussing about HIV/AIDS was considered as taboo, whereas undergoing HIV testing was a big deal like someone in between life and death. 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.
