Condom Pin Making

//s
Afiiae

The Condom Project uses visual art in order to educate and
desensitize at-risk populations to condoms. This is a time
to make condom art pins using condoms with clear-backed
packaging, so that the condom itself is visible, breaking down
the mystery of condoms.

In every high HIV prevalence rural district of Africa, only
a minority of patients access ART yet thousands of people
need ART today. To quickly increase access, a priority is
to decentralize ART delivery at peripheral points of care.
MSF wishes to share with participants the experience of
decentralizing ART and to highlight advantages and obstacles
of approaches that make PLWAs themselves the cornerstone
of ART delivery.
