Promoting balanced reporting in the coverage of HIV/AIDS

Thomson Foundation led a project with the support of the European Union aiming to promote balanced, fair and accurate reporting in the coverage of HIV/AIDS in the Indian media. The initiative enabled journalists to upgrade their skills and the legacy of the project is a Reporter's Manual on HIV/AIDS which is available on the internet and provides a tool to enable informed and focused reporting on HIV/AIDS.
