Welcome

Founded and developed through the School of Education at Stanford University, TeachAIDS.org is an initiative to promote HIV/AIDS prevention strategies through research-based, culturally appropriate interactive learning tools. Diseases such as HIV/AIDS that are transmitted sexually present significant challenges because social stigma often precludes open discussion.

Based on original IRB-approved research, these interactive applications were developed by an interdisciplinary team of experts in the fields of education, communications, public health and medicine to target young learners. To minimize stigma associated with discussing sexual practices, it combines biological aspects of HIV/AIDS with cultural euphemisms, utilizing animated agents to maximize comfort and efficacy. The curricula are disseminated through Information Communication Technologies (ICT) to promote learning in both formal and informal learning spaces.

The production versions are used in several countries including S. Korea, India, Rwanda, and China, and are available for free through this website.
