Thesis (MPhil (Industrial Psychology))--Stellenbosch University, 2008. / The purpose of this research was to determine the efficacy of an innovation in HIV
prevention programming in Ukraine, which leverages the culture of Ukrainian society by
appreciating its values and incorporating them into the strategy. Analysis of the results
indicates that positive changes in two of the questions of the Behavioural Models were
significant among the participants of the Experimental Group. This was not seen in the
Control Group. The number of respondents from the Experimental Group who spoke to their
partner about HIV/AIDS in the past month increased during the month after the training. The
number of people who were tested for HIV during the month after training also increased.
Based on the results of this research, it can be concluded that participation of employees’
sexual partners in HIV prevention programs can influence Behaviour Models and lead to
desired changes in this area changes in Behaviour Models, which are very important and as
we can see depends much on participation of both sexual partners in training.

The role of environmental education in reducing water wastage in primary schools in Empangeni districtMbokazi, Msawenkosi Sandile 11 March 2010 (has links)
South Africa is a water-scarce country and receives less rainfall than the average rainfall of the World. As population increases, and development calls for increased allocation of ground water and surface water for the domestic, agriculture and industrial sectors, the pressure on water resources intensifies.
This is exacerbated by the wastages that occur in schools and homes. Conservation of water by all consumers is essential.
The study attempts to identify practices that lead to wastage of water and indicate strategies for the reduction of water wastage and conservation strategy. / Educational Studies / M.Ed. (Environmental Education)
