Venue: Government Hospital of Thoracic Medicine, Tambaram, Chennai
How can art be a tool of education and information sharing? Are artists able to redirect how people think and act? Can art save lives? And how are artists essential to anti-AIDS efforts? These are some of the questions deliberated at a special dissemination organized by MAKE ART/STOP AIDS, at the Government Hospital of Thoracic Medicine (GHTM), Tambaram, Chenna, India on Monday, 7 September 2009.

 Sharing their perspectives on the issue at the dissemination were Mr. Andrew Simkin, the U.S. Consul General, Chennai, who delivered the Keynote Address; Dr. Revathi, Assistant Project Director, Tamil Nadu State AIDS Control Society (TANSACS); Dr. C Chandraseker, Superintendent, GHTM and Dr. David Gere, Director, Art|Global Health Center at University of California, Los Angeles.

The learnings from the three Ford Foundation-funded MAKE ART/STOP AIDS projects in India were also presented on the occasion offering insights on how the arts contribute to anti-AIDS efforts.
