About Swaziland
Swaziland offers stunning mountain ranges, valleys dotted with mud huts and lush sugarcane fields for its people who enjoy peace. However, despite political rest, AIDS/HIV has devastated the country and it has endured a prolonged economic decline. Two-thirds of citizens still live on less than a dollar a day. Nearly 25% of the population require food aid and the unemployment rate is a staggering 30%.
