Disease with no name

On October 8, the documentary "Disease with no name", was presented at De Roma.

The documentary “Disease with no name”, followed some community health workers during their home visits to people with HIV and Tuberculosis in a South African township. In the wake of these courageous health workers, viewers learned more about the HIV problem in South Africa and the challenges it brings, such as the widespread stigma. The film was followed by a discussion with Caroline Masquillier (researcher at the University of Antwerp), Alexis Andries (Doctors of the World) and Helen N. Byarugaba (testimony) in which the HIV problem is framed worldwide and in a local context.
