AIDS Candlelight Memorial

Last month, the Youth Club I work with organized their second annual Candlelight Memorial for the victims of AIDS (SIDA in French). Activities included making T-shirts and a large plaster SIDA ribbon, an open youth-issues discussion forum between regional Peace Corps volunteers and youth, speeches from local leaders, and two theatre pieces—one in English (oh they make a teacher so darn proud!) and another trippy piece set to music in which a freaky AIDS monster came out and consumed characters engaging in at-risk behaviors. We were a hit! Enjoy the pictures...
