HIV/AIDS is a growing concern among the Sri Lankan
population. At present there are 8,500 adults living with AIDS and hundreds die
every year. NCEASL recognizes that there is a need to educate the public on
this subject, especially the youth. "Project Positive" was launched
with this purpose in mind. Various awareness programs were launched throughout
the country and the aim was to convey the topic of HIV/AIDS in a way that
people would understand and remember it.
