The AIDS 101 Training

25TH APRIL 2008
3pm – 5pm
Lecture Theatre 5, Taylor’s University College
Speaker: En Zamzuri (MALAYSIAN AIDS COUNCIL)

Achievements/ milestones
- The session was very interactive and informative. Overall, the volunteers were very satisfied.
- The feedback from the speaker was positive as he offered anyone of us who wanted to be trained as speakers or facilitators in the future.
- These volunteers will be taking part in the International AIDS Memorial Day 2008

What we have learnt
- The volunteers are now fully equip with knowledge on the medical background of AIDS/HIV as well as are aware of the issues surrounding the topic such as the stigma and efforts made by the Malaysian AIDS Council.
- Volunteers now understand the importance of giving commitment in this volunteering work.

The event was really interactive as the speaker was very very good and interesting. We had an ice-breakking session which was very interesting as he popped up questions that never did come up to our mind before this. The session was easy to understand as the speaker, Abang Zam, approached the topic of AIDS/HIV is a simple was as do students would find it easy to absorb. ALOT of questions were given, (a proof of how much we dont know about the topic) and ALOT of misconceptions were answered.

It was GREAT!!!
