HALLIWELL’S AFRICAN CHARITY ADVENTURE
GERI HALLIWELL is teaching sex education to children in Zambia during a trip to the African nation in her role as an ambassador for the United Nations (UN).
The former SPICE GIRL has met with young HIV sufferers during the trip, which is intended to raise awareness of AIDS.
Halliwell, who is also scheduled to meet Zambian Health Minister ANGELIA CIFIRE during her two day stay, says of the cause, "Every woman deserves to have her baby safely. It is shocking that in this day and age, one in six women in the world’s poorest countries may die in childbirth.
"Most of these deaths are preventable, all with simple and affordable services. I want help to empower women in Africa, as healthy and educated women have a direct effect on their economies."
