    ¶1. (U) ROME'S SANT'EGIDIO COMMUNITY, A VATICAN-ENDORSED LAY
    CATHOLIC NGO WITH GLOBAL REACH, WHICH SUCCESSFULLY MEDIATED
    AN END TO MOZAMBIQUE'S CIVIL WAR IN 1991, HAS LAUNCHED AN
    AMBITIOUS PROGRAM TO COMBAT HIV/AIDS IN MOZAMBIQUE.
    SANT'EGIDIO, WHICH HAS RETAINED ITS COMMITMENT TO
    MOZAMBIQUE'S DEMOCRATIC DEVELOPMENT, REGARDS HIV/AIDS AS
    THE BIGGEST THREAT TO MOZAMBIQUE'S FUTURE AND HAS LAUNCHED
    A DRUG RESOURCE ENHANCEMENT AGAINST AIDS (DREAM) PROJECT IN
    MOZAMBIQUE TO PROVIDE HIGHLY ACTIVE ANTI-RETROVIRAL
    TREATMENT TO PREGNANT WOMEN AND LACTATING MOTHERS.  WITH
    ADEQUATE FUNDING, IT INTENDS TO EXPAND THE PROGRAM TO OTHER
    KEY AT-RISK SECTORS IN THE COUNTRY.  A 12-MONTH CLINICAL
    TRIAL HAS PROVEN HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL, REDUCING TRANSMISSION
    RATES BY UP TO 40 PERCENT AND SAVING THOUSANDS OF NEWBORNS
    FROM HIV INFECTION.  THE DREAM PROJECT HAS ALREADY SECURED
    SUPPORT FROM MULTINATIONAL DRUG COMPANIES, AND MOZAMBIQUE'S
    MINISTER OF HEALTH, FRANCISCO SOGNANE EXTOLLED THE BENEFITS
    OF THE SANT'EGIDIO PROJECT FOR MOZAMBIQUE'S PEOPLE AND
    URGED THAT IT BE ENLARGED TO ENCOMPASS A GREATER NUMBER OF
    PEOPLE INFECTED WITH HIV/AIDS.  ADDITIONAL FUNDING WILL
    ALLOW THE PROJECT TO BE EXPANDED THROUGHOUT MOZAMBIQUE, AND
    POTENTIALLY BEYOND. EMBASSY BELIEVES THAT DREAM FITS LIKE A
    GLOVE WITH THE PRESIDENT'S INTERNATIONAL MOTHER AND CHILD
    HIV PREVENTION INITIATIVE AND RECOMMENDS THAT THE WHITE
    HOUSE, USAID, AND EMBASSY MAPUTO WORK WITH SANT'EGIDIO TO
    EXPAND THIS PROMISING PROJECT ADMINISTERED BY A GROUP WITH
    A PROVEN TRACK RECORD.  END SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUEST.

    SANT'EGIDIO: AFTER PEACE, TAKES AIM AT HIV/AIDS
    --------------------------------------------- --

    ¶2. (U) THE SANT'EGIDIO COMMUNITY, A VATICAN-APPROVED LAY
    MOVEMENT -- NOT LIMITED TO CATHOLICS -- WITH MORE THAN
    40,000 MEMBERS DEDICATED TO CHARITY, HUMANITARIAN, AND
    CONFLICT RESOLUTION EFFORTS IN MORE THAN 60 COUNTRIES, WAS
    INSTRUMENTAL IN MEDIATING AN END TO MOZAMBIQUE'S
    DEVASTATING CIVIL WAR IN 1991.  THE COMMUNITY'S COMMITMENT
    TO MOZAMBIQUE HAS NOT ABATED SINCE THEN, AND IT IS NOW
    ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN ENSURING THAT THE HARD-WON PEACE LEADS
    TO BETTER ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL CONDITIONS FOR THE PEOPLE OF
    MOZAMBIQUE.  TODAY, SANT'EGIDIO RECOGNIZES THAT THE
    INCREASINGLY HIGH INCIDENCE OF HIV/AIDS IN MOZAMBIQUE IS
    NOW THE BIGGEST THREAT TO THE NATION'S FUTURE, DESTROYING
    FAMILIES AND UNDERMINING ECONOMIC PROGRESS.  AS A RESULT,
    ANDREA RICCARDI, THE KINETIC FOUNDER AND HEAD OF THE
    COMMUNITY HAS DEVELOPED AN INITIATIVE TOGETHER WITH THE
    SIZEABLE SANT'EGIDIO COMMUNITY IN MOZAMBIQUE AIMED AT
    REVERSING THE SPREAD OF HIV/AIDS THROUGH ANTI-RETROVIRAL
    TREATMENTS.

    ¶3. (U) ACCORDING TO SANT'EGIDIO, THE FIGHT AGAINST HIV/AIDS
    IN AFRICA HAS BEEN BASED PREDOMINANTLY ON PREVENTING MORE
    AFRICANS FROM CONTRACTING THE VIRUS.  SANT'EGIDIO BELIEVES
    THIS HAS NOT WORKED, EVEN WHILE THEY SUPPORT CONTINUED
    EFFORTS AT EDUCATION AND PREVENTION.  THEY POINT OUT THAT
    NO EPIDEMIC HAS BEEN OVERCOME BY PREVENTION ALONE.
    MOREOVER, THEY BELIEVE THE LACK OF ACCESS TO TREATMENT
    SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PREVENTION, AS
    PEOPLE FEAR BEING TESTED AND FOUND TO BE POSITIVE BECAUSE

    DREAM:  TREATMENT THAT WORKS
    ----------------------------

    ¶4. (U) SANT'EGIDIO'S DRUG RESOURCE ENHANCEMENT AGAINST AIDS
    IN MOZAMBIQUE (DREAM) PROJECT IS OFFERING ACCESSIBLE
    TREATMENT TO PEOPLE WITH HIV/AIDS, BEGINNING WITH PREGNANT
    AND LACTATING MOTHERS.  ANTI-RETROVIRAL DRUGS ARE
    ADMINISTERED TO PREGNANT WOMEN TO SAVE BOTH MOTHER AND
    CHILD, THEREBY PREVENTING A MOTHER'S OTHER CHILDREN FROM
    BECOMING ORPHANS.  CONDUCTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH LOCAL
    HEALTH PROFESSIONALS AND VOLUNTEERS, AND WITH EXISTING
    HEALTH DEPARTMENT FACILITIES AND STAFF, DREAM USES HIGHLY
    ACTIVE ANTI-RETROVIRAL THERAPY (HAART) TO PREVENT VERTICAL
    (MOTHER-FETUS) TRANSMISSION OF THE HIV VIRUS.  TREATMENT IS
    OFFERED FREE OF CHARGE.

    ¶5. (U) THE PROJECT HAS FIVE COMPONENTS:

    WHO ARE IN AN ADVANCED STAGE OF THE DISEASE.  PARTICULAR
    ATTENTION WILL ALSO BE GIVEN TO PROFESSIONAL PEOPLE SUCH AS
    HEALTH CARE WORKERS AND TEACHERS WHO ARE KEY TO
    MOZAMBIQUE'S DEVELOPMENT.  HOSPITAL AND DOMESTIC ASSISTANCE
    WILL ALSO PROVIDE COUNSELING, TESTING, TREATMENT OF
    OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS AND STDS, NUTRITIONAL EDUCATION
    AND FOOD AID.

    B) PREVENTING VERTICAL TRANSMISSION:  DREAM FORESEES THAT
    MOTHERS INFECTED WITH HIV RECEIVE HAART TO PREVENT VERTICAL
    TRANSMISSION.  AFTER GIVING BIRTH THE THERAPY CONTINUES TO
    PREVENT INFECTION BY BREAST-FEEDING.

    C) TRAINING:  DREAM WILL BE STAFFED BY MOZAMBICANS, WHICH
    REQUIRES INVESTMENT IN LOCAL AND OVERSEAS TRAINING FOR ALL
    PERSONNEL INVOLVED, A WELL AS A PROGRAM OF SUPERVISION AND
    IN-SERVICE TRAINING.

    D) LABORATORY:  TREATING HIV POSITIVE PEOPLE WITH HAART
    DEMANDS ADVANCED DIAGNOSTIC SUPPORT AND MONITORING OF ANY
    ADVERSE EFFECTS.  DREAM HAS ALREADY SET UP THE FIRST TWO
    MOLECULAR BIOLOGY LABS IN THE SOUTH OF THE COUNTRY (MAPUTO)
    AND IN THE CENTER AT BEIRA.  A SIMILAR LAB IS PRESENTLY
    BEING EQUIPPED AT NAMPULA IN THE NORTH OF MOZAMBIQUE.

    E) INFORMATION NETWORK:  ALL DREAM ACTIVITIES ARE MONITORED
    THROUGH AN IT NETWORK LINKING THE TREATMENT CENTERS AND
    LABS.

    FIRST RESULTS PROMISING
    -----------------------

    ¶6. (U) THE FIRST RESULTS OF DREAM WERE PRESENTED AT THE
    TENTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON RETROVIRUS AND
    OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS HELD IN BOSTON IN FEBRUARY.  FOUR-
    HUNDRED FORTY HIV POSITIVE PATIENTS, PRIMARILY PREGNANT
    WOMEN, PARTICIPATED IN THE INITIAL DREAM PROGRAM IN ORDER
    TO GAUGE THE EFFECTS OF THERAPY ON MOTHER-FETAL
    TRANSMISSION.  OF THESE, 240 FOLLOWED THE STANDARD THERAPY
    USED IN WESTERN COUNTRIES.  MORTALITY RATES WERE LOWERED;
    THE QUALITY OF THE PATIENTS' LIFE IMPROVED MARKEDLY, AND
    THE AMOUNT OF THE VIRUS IN THE BLOOD DECREASED NOTICEABLY.
    ABOVE ALL, THE PROGRAM REVEALED A HIGH CONTINUING
    PARTICIPATION RATE -- A POINT OF PARTICULAR SIGNIFICANCE IN
    A DEVELOPING COUNTRY LIKE MOZAMBIQUE.  THE RESULTS SHOWED
    THAT EVEN IN NATIONS WITH A BASIC HEALTH SYSTEM IT IS
    POSSIBLE TO USE A THERAPEUTIC MODEL THAT IMPACTS
    SIGNIFICANTLY ON THE RATE OF HIV INFECTION.  THE RESULTS OF
    THE DREAM TRIAL ARE TO BE PUBLISHED IN AN UP-COMING EDITION
    OF THE PRESTIGIOUS BRITISH MEDICAL JOURNAL LANCET. CLINICAL
    RESULTS OF THE TRIAL ARE AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET:
    WWW.RETROCONFERENCE.ORG/2003/ABSTRACT/WORDHTM L/2127.HTM

    ¶7. (U) THE SANT'EGIDIO COMMUNITY FURTHER ELABORATED THESE
    RESULTS AND PRESENTED ITS PROJECT AT A RECENT GATHERING IN
    ROME ATTENDED BY EMBASSY OFFICERS.  IT WAS CLEAR THAT THE
    DREAM PROJECT HAS ALREADY EARNED THE WHOLEHEARTED SUPPORT
    OF A VARIED GROUP OF ENTITIES RANGING FROM MULTINATIONAL
    DRUG COMPANIES TO THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN GERMANY.

    TO ENCOMPASS A GREATER NUMBER OF PEOPLE INFECTED WITH
    HIV/AIDS.

    ¶9. (U) EMBASSY BELIEVES IT WOULD BE HARD TO FIND A FAITH-
    BASED INITIATIVE WITH BETTER PROSPECTS THAN THE SANT'EGIDIO
    DREAM PROJECT.  WE NOTE THAT THE COMMUNITY OF SANT'EGIDIO,
    FOUNDED IN ROME IN 1968, IS VATICAN-ENDORSED CATHOLIC LAY
    MOVEMENT WITH MORE THAN 40,000 MEMBERS (NOT ALL CATHOLIC)
    DEDICATED TO CHARITY AND HUMANITARIAN EFFORTS IN MORE THAN
    60 COUNTRIES.  THE COMMUNITIES ARE COMMITTED TO SOLIDARITY
    WITH THE POOR AND SUFFERING INCLUDING PHYSICALLY AND
    MENTALLY DISABLED, HOMELESS, FOREIGN IMMIGRANTS, PEOPLE
    WITH HIV/AIDS, TERMINALLY ILL PEOPLE, PRISONERS, ELDERLY,
    ROMA AND SINTI, AND REFUGEES.  IT IS ALSO A LEADING FORCE
    FOR ECUMENICAL DIALOGUE AS A WAY TO PROMOTE PEACE AND CO-
    OPERATION AMONG RELIGIONS, AND TO RESOLVE ARMED CONFLICTS.
    COMMUNITY MEMBERS HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO RESOLVING THE
    CONFLICTS IN MOZAMBIQUE AND GUATEMALA, AND HAVE HELPED
    MEDIATE PEACE EFFORTS IN AFRICA'S GREAT LAKES REGION AND
    KOSOVO.  EMBASSY VATICAN HAS PREVIOUSLY FUNDED A
    SANT'EGIDIO PROJECT IN KOSOVO THAT SEEKS TO RECONCILE SERBS
    AND ETHNIC ALBANIANS AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL LEVEL.  WE
    MAINTAIN AN ACTIVE DIALOGUE WITH SANT'EGIDIO ON A BROAD
    RANGE OF AFRICAN ISSUES, AND THEY CONSULT REGULARLY WITH
    SENIOR USG OFFICIALS.

    ¶10. (U) EMBASSY VATICAN STRONGLY ENDORSES THE SANT'EGIDIO
    DREAM PROJECT, WHICH DCM PASSED TO USAID MOZAMBIQUE DESK
    OFFICER FOR FUNDING CONSIDERATION IN FEBRUARY.  IN LIGHT OF
                           UNCLASSIFIED

    PAGE 03        VATICA  01508  03 OF 03  090536Z
    THE PRESIDENT'S NEW INITIATIVE WITH ITS FOCUS ON MOZAMBIQUE
    AND THE ANTI-RETROVIRAL TREATMENTS BEING IMPLEMENTED
    THROUGH THE PROGRAM, WE BELIEVE THIS OFFERS AN IDEAL
    PROGRAM FOR FUTURE USG FUNDING.  SANT'EGIDIO HAS TOLD US
    THAT THEY HAVE ALREADY CHARTED AN AMBITIOUS EXPANSION OF
    THE PROGRAM, WHICH IS LIMITED ONLY BY THE LEVEL OF FUNDING.
    WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH WASHINGTON AGENCIES AND
    EMBASSY MAPUTO TO HELP FUND THIS PROMISING PROJECT, WHICH
    CAN SAVE THOUSANDS OF NEWBORNS FROM HIV INFECTION, KEEP
    FAMILIES INTACT, AND REDUCE POVERTY.
