As part of its focus on nation building, East Timor faces enormous challenges. Preventing an HV epidemic and reducing its impact is one of its most crucial challenges. Religious and cultural constraints for public discussion on sex-related issues, a low level of health awareness and the health care system with limited resources and technical skills only add to the complexities of this challenge.

Belonging to the same region, CWS Timor Leste works closely with CWS Indonesia.
