Translating the Facts – Culture Language and HIV (Part 1)
Update: 2024-05-02
Description
HIV impacts people regardless of race, sexuality, or gender. With ¼ of people in Australia with at least one parent born overseas, or from other countries themselves - our communities are diverse. In Victoria, HIV impacts the lives of people from all cultures, and so providing information and services tailored to individual cultural and linguistic needs is vital.
Michael talks to Jen Johnson, Program Manager at Living Positive Victoria about supporting our communities living with HIV who speak a language other than English through various multilingual resources and projects.
Thank you so much to Beau Newham, the project lead on Translating the Facts for bringing these resources to life for our community.
