Progressio Annual Review 2009 - How development works - September 2009 Progressio Development means building skills, strengthening communities, finding solutions. It means challenging the structures and policies that keep people poor. It means long term, lasting change. And the way we do it is through people.

Stigma in the context of development: A Christian response to the HIV pandemic - September 2009 Gillian Paterson Stigma is a major barrier to the churches' efforts to respond to the HIV pandemic. This Comment outlines the impact of stigma on HIV care, treatment, education and prevention, explores the complex interweaving of stigma and belief, and suggests a way forward for the churches and Christians to tackle the stigma that exists "in our cultures, our churches, our institutions and communities, and - let's face it - in all our hearts". Price: £2.00

Instability, structural violence and vulnerability: A Christian response to the HIV pandemic - September 2009 James Keenan and Enda McDonagh This Comment suggests that three interlocking concepts are key for understanding HIV and AIDS: instability, structural violence, and vulnerability. Exploring these concepts from a theological perspective, the authors argue that only openness to the vulnerability of others, and acknowledgement of our own, "will offer serious hope of devising strategies and activities that will give us the partial but still substantial security worthy of our humanity". Price: £2.00

War and Peace - July 2009 Rashiid Sheekh Cabdillaahi ‘Gadhweyne’ Poetry is at the heart of Somali culture and has played a fundamental role in commenting on situations and influencing opinion in Somali society throughout its known history.

For the common good: Reflections on Pope Benedict’s encyclical Caritas in Veritate - July 2009 Progressio Many people think the Catholic Church is preoccupied with contraception, abortion and death. Yet beyond that sometimes self-inflicted stereotype there is hidden treasure – a centuries-old tradition of radical, progressive action and insight on matters of social justice. Price: £0.00
