The Global Lutheran World Federation (LWF) Campaign against HIV/AIDS began its first phase in 2002 "to promote churches getting more involved with HIV and AIDS activities, especially in regions of Africa and Asia," said Dr. Sheila Shyamprasad, the HIV and AIDS consultant to the LWF Department for Mission and Development. She said one of the key lessons learned was that Lutheran leadership -- bishops, lay leaders, leaders of women's, men's and youth groups -- must be involved for the church's activities to be effective.
