AIDS awareness through folk arts

Folk artistes will be performing in villages and towns, subtly promoting awareness about AIDS/HIV.The Song and Drama Division (SDD) of the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting is holding workshops for folk troupes to train them to include understated messages about the disease in order to prevent its further spread.
