When people in the developing world want someone to teach about health issues like
HIV, they look to medical people. Thus, whether you are going for a short- or long-term trip, you may well be asked, “Are you ready?” Unless you specialize in infectious disease, how much do you really know about the disease? What is your goal
in teaching? What do people really need to know? Perhaps the most important question is how do you communicate the facts about disease to
an audience that has very little, if any, understanding of science. In fact, many have
a deep distrust of science. This breakout session is based on more than 26
years of experience teaching about HIV around the world. The interactive discussion will help you think through the questions above as the facilitator shares with you the stories God has given him that communicate the important concepts in ways that are easily understood and applied by audiences in cultures
that are very different from our own.
