Earth-Info.Net has just been sent the latest newsletter from the OneWorld Radio AIDS Network - a collaborative project which brings together broadcasters + NGO's in their shared fight against AIDS.

The network has a very large archive of AIDS-related online radio programmes which you can listen to for free...

Here a few examples of what they have to offer:

* The Global Fund: Two years on, is it working?
This report, by InterWorld Radio takes a close look at the Global Fund (to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis & Malaria), which was set up in 2000 to combat the AIDS pandemic, as well as malaria and tuberculosis, a topic also featured at the recent G8 Summit in France. So far, the fund has handed out over a billion dollars to fund projects in 153 countries. But just how effective has this been?

* Workplace HIV treatment helps breaks stigma
A special Health-e report looking at metal industry employees in South Africa, an area which provides little treatment or support for its workers. This is despite the fact that around 20% of the 350 000 metal industry workforce is infected with HIV. Khopotso Bodibe reports.

* Uganda, Burkina Faso + the world AIDS crisis.
The latest edition of this weekly show features Uganda's success in decreasing HIV infection; the extensive spread of HIV in Burkina Faso and local efforts to fight the disease and attitudes which encourage the spread of HIV; a look at the World AIDS Crisis in an interview with Family Health International; and a report on "The Reach Out Project" in Kampala, Uganda.
