As the world observes World AIDS Day, Namibia reflects on the remarkable journey of Emma Tuahepa, the first woman in the country to openly disclose her HIV-AIDS status in 1996, at just 22 years old. Now 50 and living at Rietfontein, she looks back on more than three decades of survival and resilience at a time when stigma was fierce and treatment limited.

Her story continues to highlight how far the country has come and why the fight against HIV-AIDS remains as important as ever.
