| Synopsis: |
Many health promotion planners and educators working in AIDS control programmes have encountered major difficulties in their efforts to design and implement information and education programmes about HIV infection. Often these difficulties stem from people's instinctive reactions to the AIDS epidemic - reactions of fear, denial and blame. The case studies presented here describe how different health promotion programmes have dealt with the emotional reactions of the different groups involved: the health promoters themselves, target audiences, HIV-infected patients and decision makers. |
