HIV education in South Africa

This film showcased by Duke University was created by students in South Africa. It can be found on itunes university underDuke's center for documentation studies.
South Africa is a country in turmoil. One of the major issues is HIV and AIDS. More and more grandparents become the sole providers of the house hold due to the next generation dying of AIDS. The break up of families due to illness and was compounds the situation and leaves children and young people vulnerable to violence, assault and rape.
Fortunately their are programs for South Africa's youth. One of the exercises used at these programs and institutions is role playing, as it allows the individual to express what has happened under the context of a skit and have the aid and support of other students. It also sends a message to the audience: you are not the only one.
The main message the students in this video wanted to express is that they are the future regardless of what happens, what they may go thorugh, or what may be done to them.
