Hey everyone!
Here are some great pictures to show what my school did for HIV/AIDS day, December 1st. Seven of the students from our 11th class attended an HIV/AIDS camp in the summer. Five of them conducted HIV/AIDS trainings to the 9th, 10th, and 11th classes in our school.
Vlad and Vasia in the front of the class were a great teaching pair!
My fellow English teacher, Ms. Vistoria, and me holding an advertisement for and HIV/AIDS concert later that day!
My German friend, Johanna, is also a volunteer in Ukraine and she helped me make posters. This one shows how HIV/AIDS is concentrated in Ukraine.
FYI: Ukraine has the highest number of cases in Eastern Ukraine.
(
oblast=county/region)
Odessa Oblast is #1
Dnipropetrovsk is #2
Donetsk Oblast is #3
Mykolaiv Oblast is #4
Most HIV infections are spread through sexual intercourse or by drug users who share needles.
In English: This is a logical diagram that demonstrates why or why not people chose to protect themselves.
Many Ukrainians continue to share needles because there are no needle-exchange programs available and buying needles is expensive.
The winner of this year's HIV/AIDS poster contest....in Ukrainian, which I don't speak, but I think it says, "We are with you, you are not alone"
This poster is the winner from last year. This one shows the importance of keeping by friends who are suffering with HIV/AIDS!

Later in the day, there was a performance in honor of HIV/AIDS day.
Johanna and I super tired after so many trainings and making so many posters the day before!
