Yehiwot Tebitawoch
Ethiopia
In 2003, PMC published its first book in Ethiopia, Yehiwot Tebitawoch (“Drops of Life”). This was a collection of eight national prize-winning short stories and three poems focusing on HIV/AIDS and related social issues.
The creative pieces were selected from among 146 short stories and 176 poems submitted in response to a national competition for poems and short stories addressing reproductive health and HIV/AIDS issues. Ten thousand copies of this book were published and distributed throughout Ethiopia. This book contributed to the Whole Society Strategy surrounding radio serial dramas Dhimbibba (“Getting the Best Out of Life”) and Yeken Kignit (“Looking Over One’s Daily Life”).
