Think Malawi is conservative? This video proves otherwise!

Our head facilitator is adored by everyone, and I am not exaggerating when I note that people LOVE her trainings! This is an ice breaker song she used as a participatory energizer during her most recent training on the new HIV treatment guidelines here in Malawi. Keep in mind that Malawi is generally a very conservative society. But, you can tell she really knows how to get people to relax and stop feeling embarrassed about sexuality!

If you want to sing along, she using the tune of Frere Jadques to sing, "water-melon, water-melon, pa-pa-ya, pa-pa-ya, this is the banana, this is the banana, fruit-salad, fruit-salad."

I have no idea what she yelled at the end. Thanks to our friend, Shannon, for recording and sharing. Enjoy!
