OSI Supports Video Advocacy at International AIDS Conference
At the 2008 International AIDS Conference, the Public Health Program's Health Media Initiative worked with partner organizations and grantees to highlight the critical need for human rights to be at the center of the global AIDS response.
In particular, the initiative supported WITNESS to facilitate a series of trainings for human rights advocates on conducting video advocacy. Participants were provided with digital recording equipment to interview other activists and capture community voices during the AIDS conference. Several of these video testimonies were presented during the International Rally for Human Rights and HIV/AIDS and are online at the WITNESS Hub.
To view the testimonies, as well as a video of the human rights rally, go to http://hub.witness.org/en/user/2540/media.
