HARARE, Jun 28 (IPS) - "We are too familiar with the violence that was
meted upon numerous of us from 1890 when the colonialists came
into our country right up to the most recent elections. Chief
among these forms of violence is sexual violence, and it
concomitant implication, HIV infection. Zimbabwean women now have
the lowest life expectancy world wide because of HIV & AIDS -- 34
years."
