Pakistani Journalists Produce a Breakthrough Radio Program on HIV/AIDS

via www.internews.org

A group of journalists in Pakistan has produced a series of radio programs on HIV/AIDS in their country that feature stories previously unheard of on Pakistani radio. The programs, in both the Urdu and Pashto languages, include stories about men and women who are living with HIV/AIDS, as well as interviews with medical experts and religious leaders. Before producing the programs, the journalists participated in a six-day Internews training program in Islamabad in late November 2004.
