Scenarios from Africa
SCENARIOS FROM AFRICA is a community mobilisation, education and media project about HIV/AIDS carried out with and for young people. It gives children and young adults an exciting opportunity to educate themselves and others about HIV/AIDS by inviting them to participate with internationally acclaimed directors in the production of a series of short fiction films. The films are based on ideas thought up by young people for a series of contests. So far, over 100,000 young people from more than 35 African countries have taken part in these contests. Hundreds of local and international partner organisations are involved in organising the contests and selecting the winning ideas. Twenty-eight short fiction films are currently available. Some of the films are very touching, others are funny. They are distributed on a non-commercial basis across Africa and well beyond, for broadcast on national television stations and on international satellite networks.
