🎧 #AudioForAction Guest Curator: Eric Bond
A Life Beyond HIV
Founded over 30 years ago, The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation is committed to a comprehensive response to fighting HIV and AIDS through research, global advocacy, strengthening of local health care systems, and growing the capacity of governments and communities in the world’s most affected regions to respond to urgent needs. Most of this work has occurred in Sub-Saharan Africa and the U.S.
Storytelling has the power to change lives and transform perspective. This curation focuses on storytelling podcasts that challenge many people’s everyday perceptions about life with HIV, life in Africa, and life as a young people.
