In observance of World AIDS Day, the Department of Preventive Medicine at the University of Savoie Mont Blanc (USMB) invites you to join us on Thursday, November 29, 2018, at all three USMB campuses.
On the Jacob-Bellecombette campus
To mark the 30th anniversary of this global day, UNAIDS chose “Know Your Status” as the theme for 2018, given that one in four people living with HIV are unaware of their HIV status. Knowing one’s status is the cornerstone of international strategies aimed at ending the epidemic by 2030.
A selfie booth will be available to USMB students from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Building 20, in the multi-service area next to the GUIDE: take a photo to show your commitment to fighting the disease. #know your status!
Male and female condoms will be available on site, along with information on free testing locations where you can find out your HIV status.
On the Bourget-du-Lac campus
In partnership with the LGBT+ organization Savoie+, an awareness-raising session and information on UNAIDS’ 2030 goals, as well as the various strategies available to achieve them, will be presented from 11:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in Building 6 (Student Life Center). On the agenda: informational posters, flyers, a fun activity organized by the LGBT+ Association involving blindfolded and timed condom application, and a quiz on discrimination, male condoms, and female condoms.
On the Annecy campus
The Department of Preventive Medicine at the University of Savoie Mont Blanc will have a booth at the University Dining Hall from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. On the agenda: the “Bulle d’amour” exhibition (on display starting November 27), prevention messages, informational materials, flyers, and the distribution of male and female condoms.
