This resource draws on media research conducted by the Children’s Institute and the Centre for Social Science Research (both at the University of Cape Town), the Media Monitoring Project, and the HIV/AIDS and the Media Project, managed by the Journalism Programme and the Perinatal HIV Research Unit (at the University of the
Witwatersrand).
The media shapes public attitudes and actions towards children affected by HIV/AIDS. This makes it important for journalists and editors to be conscious of the perspectives and judgements that are implicit in their reporting. This resource provides reference information to assist journalists in reporting on children in the context of HIV/AIDs.
