It is easy to see \u201cwho\u201d the African Jesuit AIDS Network (AJAN) is, from its name: it is a network of Jesuits and their co-workers in sub-Saharan Africa, who are somehow involved in the ministry of AIDS care and HIV prevention.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Jesuits have long been responding to the challenges thrown up by HIV\/AIDS in Africa. But it was only in 2002 that the continental Jesuit leadership \u2013 the Jesuit Superiors of Africa and Madagascar (JESAM) \u2013 identified AIDS as a shared priority and created AJAN to coordinate its struggle against the pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n
