In observance of World AIDS Day: Local health organizations and nonprofits will host a film and panel discussion at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 30, at Hellems Room 252 on the University of Colorado campus. "A Closer Walk: A film about AIDS in the world.
"A Closer Walk" is a powerful documentary that depicts the broad spectrum of the global AIDS experience and includes the stories of people with HIV/AIDS from all walks of life: AIDS children and orphans; doctors, nurses, and social workers; human rights advocates; and prominent scientists, economists, researchers, and government leaders. The film addresses underlying causes of AIDS, as well as the universal need for action, compassion, and commitment to counter what has become the worst plague in human history. Following the film, a panel of AIDS activists who have both local and global experience will lead a discussion, talk about their experiences, and invite others to get involved in the fight against the AIDS epidemic. The event is co-sponsored by Boulder County Public health, Boulder County AIDS Project, the CU Sexual Health Education Program, and Grassroots Soccer. Dec. 1st GrassRoots Soccer Benefit.
