AIDS Awareness Campaign -- Stories from Africa

Collaborators

During the project, we have sought financial assistance, but it has been equally important to us that we were able to receive technical support from collaborative partners on the ground throughout Africa.

Our collaborative partners' ability to share expert knowledge of local conditions has been essential to the success of our campaign.
