One project considered most democratic in application and appropriation is Tuseme project of Tanzania. The Tuseme groups assiduously follow an intensive workshop approach which has resulted into change of attitude towards sending girls to school<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The use of theatre to fight the spread of&nbsp;<strong>HIV\/AIDS is quite extensive in&nbsp;<\/strong>Eastern and Southern Africa where FIN and AIDs threatens to decimate whole populations. For example, in Uganda, a country considered to be&nbsp;<strong>a model&nbsp;<\/strong>of success, the government and a non-governmental organization the Aids Support Organization (TASO) used TFD as a tool for behaviour change.&nbsp;established seven theatre companies made up of people 25 people living with AIDS per group which gave hope to the affected and infected as they saw people infected perform and talk about their lives. The general effect in Uganda was reduction of the rate of infection from 30% in 1994 to 6% in 2004.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Zambia, TFD against AIDs was first used at the University of Zambia under the project Artists against AIDs which was sponsored by SIDA and lasted four years. The project took theatre to communities. Between 2003 and 2004 the Zambian Defence Units used TFD to break down stigma. Through its two theatre companies reached 6,000 soldiers and their families in 42 camps and bases.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The origin of Theatre for Development can be traced back in the late 1970s as a social movement that disseminated [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[55,48,49,82,68],"tags":[80,81],"class_list":["post-641","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-biology","category-blog","category-business","category-drama","category-education","tag-drama","tag-theatre-for-development"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 5.0.1.1 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The origin of Theatre for Development can be traced back in the late 1970s as a social movement that disseminated information on issues of development at the grassroots level in the developing world.
