Africa Goal Photo Exhibition

Africa Goal Project Launch Exhibition

In 2010, the FIFA World Cup will be hosted in South Africa. People from all over Africa

and abroad, from different cultures, backgrounds and countries, will come together to

support their favourite teams, share in the excitement of the football matches and to

celebrate the event. This is the first time that the World Cup is being hosted in Africa,

making it a truly momentous occasion for the continent.

Africa Goal aims to provide an innovative platform for effective HIV information and

experience sharing, centered around the World Cup 2010 matches. Throughout the

duration of the FIFA World Cup tournament, the Africa Goal team will be traveling

from Kenya to South Africa, through the region of the World most affected by HIV.

Every match day, they will screen live World Cup football games and disseminate HIV

information in different localities, sharing not only the excitement of the World Cup but

also vital HIV information with diverse audiences.

The 2010 World Cup is a time to remind ourselves that we can all unite and join

together for a specific purpose and, in so doing, can bring about change. 2010 is a

landmark year for Africa and, by taking the opportunity to play our part in reducing all

new HIV infections, now and in the future, it will also be a landmark year for each of

us as individuals, as a community and as a region in the fight against HIV. In the spirit

of ‘About Face’, make 2010 the year that you make a difference to HIV prevalence in

the region.

Please join us at the Africa Goal ‘Give me the ball and I will make it happen’

exhibition during HIFA from the 27th April – 2nd May 2010 at the National Gallery,

Harare to learn more about the Africa Goal project and HIV.

The Africa Goal 2010 project has been

made possible through generous support

from the Government of Canada.
