MSF has started to roll out a new HIV prevention tool: a long-acting injectable pre-exposure prophylaxis. If we can get this drug to people at risk of HIV infection, and they accept it, this will be a turning point in ending the HIV epidemic.  

When Fikile Ngwenya was hired as a field driver for Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) in Shiselweni, Eswatini, she was thrilled. She faced questions and criticism as a woman in this non-traditional occupation, but she enjoys being a confident role model for her community. 

Fikile's story is part of our coverage of women in leadership in MSF for International Women's Day.
