The idea of Hope Humana projects is to give people hope and the ability to face HIV/AIDS. It is a People to People strategy based on people coming together and acting to realise the hope for life. The Hope projects work through actions that prevent infections, lead to a healthier life with HIV and create many alliances and structures for people to support each other to deal with the consequences of the HIV pandemic.
The Hope Humana project has a centre for its activities, but works with people in their communities to ensure that it is easy for people to meet, support each other and follow up on PMTCT( Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission), TB treatment, ART (Anti Retroviral treatment) and other activities.
The strategy of Hope is based on that the Hope activists take the lead in reaching out to the community. They are trained in community mobilisation skills and HIV/AIDS prevention, care and support. Testing services with follow-up are also provided, and referrals are made as needed to support groups, to treatment centres and other health services.

TCE is a community mobilisation programme focused on preventing HIV transmission. The foundation of TCE is that only the people can liberate themselves from the HIV epidemic. The programme raises awareness about HIV, mobilises people to change their behaviour and utilise health services such as HIV testing, treatment for HIV (anti- retroviral treatment, ART) treatment of sexually transmitted diseases and opportunistic infections, participation in maternal and child health programmes and TB treatment.


The basis of the TCE programme is a dialogue on HIV/Aids between a TCE field officer and all individuals in the Field of 2000 people. TCE is systematically covering all people in a TCE Area. This is a geographic unit of 100.000 people. Fifty TCE Field Officers are employed in a TCE Area, with each assisting 2.000 people. Each single person in the area is mobilised to take control of HIV in his / her own life. The Field Officer assists individuals to draft a personal HIV risk reduction plan and supports the people in changing sexual behaviour and lifestyle.
In 2015 alone TCE was reaching out to around 5 million people in 51 different areas.
