HIV Ed on the Big Screen – Kate Winskell (Tu, 1/15, 6P)

How do you get a population to pay attention to the epidemic that is
killing them? You ask them to tell you the story. In the latest
installment of the lecture series “Global Diseases: Voices from the
Vanguard,” Kate Winskell a visiting professor in the Rollins School of
Public Health at Emory University will talk about the “Scenarios from
Africa” project. In this innovative program, young Africans write
screenplays about their experiences with HIV/AIDS and vie to have them
turned into short films. Her lecture, “Scenarios from Africa:
Dramatizing stories of HIV/AIDS,” is in the Chapel at 6P on Tuesday,
1/15. You can read more at <http://tinyurl.com/2gg3yt>. I’ll save you a
seat! And you can watch the movies at http://www.globaldialogues.org -- they really are very good.
