Africa Alive! is a Non-Profit Organization The mission of the Africa Alive! campaign is to educate and give youth the skills they need in the fight against HIV/AIDS through the medium of popular entertainment. The VISION is a new generation of Africans who are HIV/AIDS-free. With over 70% of the people in the world infected with HIV living in sub-Saharan Africa, it is clear that Africa Alive! is a much needed initiative.
A Goal Of Education Through Art and Music Africa Alive! encourages young people not only to learn and talk about HIV/AIDS, but also to make the choice to adopt safer sexual behaviors (i.e., abstinence, condoms, and keeping to one partner). This approach combines entertainment and education to attract attention and provide a forum for delivering behavior change messages. With the input of entertainment and health professionals, and audience feedback, quality programs are developed that have audience appeal as well as powerful, factually correct social messages. Enter-Educate has proven successful in Africa and around the world in promoting behavior change among youth. With staff in 26 countries, JHU/CCP has developed and managed over 300 country-based projects and contracts in 47 countries, involving more than 200 local organizations and subcontractors. Africa Alive! with support from JHU/CCP reaches African youth by tapping into popular, creative channels of communication that appeal to youth in Africa and all over the world. How Can You Help? Africa Alive! is looking for Artists to do benefits to raise money here in the US.
