World AIDS Day @ the British Council (Egypt) December 1, 2006

Each of us can help stop the spread of HIV and reduce the impact of AIDS. You don’t have to be a top scientist working on a cure to make a difference. Protecting yourself and others from HIV infection, welcoming someone living with HIV into your life, or even just talking about HIV and AIDS can help.

** Are You Taking Action?

You can, by being part of our World AIDS Day at the British Council - Egypt (Agouza)
on December 1st, 2006 - from 01.00 p.m. to 6.00 p.m.
