Summary:
|
This reporting guide on HIV/AIDS in India is designed for journalists covering the global epidemic, often on short notice. The Kaiser Family Foundation undertook this project as part of its continuing commitment to combating HIV/AIDS through public education and awareness. The material covers a broad range of subjects including the science, treatment and prevention of HIV/AIDS. |

Description:
|
The epidemic is not only a battle against a virus. It can also be a battle about ideas, cultural taboos, stigma and discrimination. For that reason, we have included information about the political and social aspects of the epidemic. For example, we describe language that may, inadvertently, promote discrimination and suggest alternatives. You should view this as a reference guide. A more in-depth source of information on HIV/AIDS can be found in the HIV/AIDS section of this website. Kaiser has always believed that journalists have a significant role to play in informing the public and public policy officials. This reporting guide, we hope, will contribute to that process. |
