AIDS2012 Day Four: The Global Village

by | Jul 27, 2012 | Gay Life, Living with HIV/AIDS, My Fabulous Disease, News, Prevention and Policy | 5 comments

It’s time for a tour of the heart and soul of the international AIDS conference in Washington, DC: The Global Village. This massive hall is the only part of the conference open to the public, and it has a grass-roots feel, crafted from the love and devotion of hundreds of community groups who are doing “the work on the ground” in cities and small towns throughout the world.

Thank God I’m a video blogger, because words escape me when trying to describe the colors and displays and most importantly, the committed people behind it all. You’re about to meet drag queens who make their living handing out condoms, sex workers demanding an end to criminalization, young prevention workers from far-flung corners of the planet, a stunning photo exhibit from the Ukraine… the list goes on.

Why wait? Take a look at my video report. Welcome to the Global Village!

Thanks for watching, and please be well.

Mark
