Evaluation / Book review.
This publication presents the reports and papers prepared under an UNESCO project initiated in 1998 on preventive information based on investigative journalism and HIV/Aids in East and Southern Africa. The project ’s objectives were to: ( i ) identify a few pertinent trends or phenomena in the region which contribute to the spread of HIV/AIDS; (ii) carry out in-depth investigation on the relationship between the phenomena and the prevalence of the disease; and (iii) study the extent to which the incidence of HIV/AIDS is reported in the media. It contains practical and technical guidelines for media practitioners specializing or interested in HIV/AIDS issues.

All chapters can be downloaded separately as PDF files.
