HEART

HIV/AIDS AND OTHER SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES EDUCATION AND PREVENTION

HEART (HIV/AIDS and Other Sexually Transmitted Diseases Education and Prevention) is an event held by SCORA CIMSA UI 2020 to commemorate World Aids Day which takes place on December 1st every year. According to our assessment on 119 subjects, there is a tendency of stigmatization for people living with HIV (PLHIV). 93.3% of our respondents believe that PLHIV are involved in promiscuity. Furthermore, our respondents mostly agree (with average score 89%) that there should be a discussion for this issue. Therefore, all those reasons increase the urgency to conduct HEART.

HEART is divided into pre-event, consisting of an online campaign, an open donation, and a creative content competition which was held in collaboration with UNAIDS Indonesia (November 23rd - December 3rd, 2020); and main event consisting of a webinar and a talk show with PLHIV (December 5th, 2020). Included in our online campaign is a quiz on myth/ fact about HIV/AIDS, World AIDS Day Quiz, and the clarification of the previous myth/fact. The theme of this year’s creative content competition is about “Zero HIV Stigma and Discrimination” and “Education and Prevention of HIV/AIDS” in order to increase awareness and knowledge regarding HIV/AIDS and other STDs.

Through our main event, online campaign, and creative content competition, we hope we can provide a better understanding of HIV/ AIDS from verified sources, as well as helping to eradicate stigmas and discriminations toward PLHIV.

We hope our event’s tagline will come true: end the dread, stop the spread!
