OneLove Booklet (Lesotho)

This leaflet was published in Lesotho as part of Onelove, a regional campaign taking place across countries in Southern Africa to raise awareness and dialogue about multiple concurrent partnerships (MCP). The publication explains that MCP is the practice of having more than one sexual partner at the same time in which partners overlap for weeks, months, or years, creating a "sexual network."

The publication includes discussion about the following aspects of MCP.

• Why is having more than one sexual partner risky? - discusses how HIV can be passed on through sexual networks.
• How HIV can spread in a sex network? - an illustrated explanation about the vulnerability of partners in a sexual network.
• Why do people have many sexual partners at the same time? - discuses various reasons why people have many sexual partners, and what can be done to address these identified reasons.
• What you can do to keep safe? - encourages partners to talk to each other about sexuality and HIV, protect themselves by knowing their status, using condoms, reducing the number of partners, and developing mutual respect.
