Introduction
HIV/AIDS
is a growing concern among the Sri Lankan population. At present there
are 8,500 adults living with AIDS and hundreds die every year. Alliance
Development Trust recognises that that there is a need to educate the
public on this subject, especially the youth. "Project Positive" was
launched with this purpose in mind. Various awareness programmes are
launched throughout the country and the aim is to convey the topic of
HIV/AIDS in a way that people will understand and remember it.
HIV/AIDS is a bitter reality for many in Sri Lanka. Our mission as human beings is to alleviate their suffering by caring for them and treating them with respect. NCEASL/ADT is in the frontline of this ongoing battle. Through its joint efforts of educating the public and the youth especially, we believe HIV/AIDS will be eradicated from our country in the near future. |
