With World AIDS Day tomorrow, we dedicate this episode of The Informer to look at where we have come as a community to where we need to go to provide greater support and fight the stigma and discrimination people living with HIV face daily.

 

SAMESH, the South Australian Mobilisation and Empowerment for Sexual Health, announced the launch of the Our Lives video campaign. A series exploring the lives of three HIV positive South Australians and their personal experiences of HIV stigma. Wil Louge, the Team Leader of SAMESH which is the consortium of SHINA SA & the Victorian AIDS Council tell us a bit about the campaign.

This segment of The Informer on JOY 94.9 aired on 30th November 2017
