THE production of this Media Manual has indeed been rewarding. The 2005 edition of the Manual was very well received. Its high production values ensured it was attractive and its style made it appropriate for its audience.

Numerous organizations asked us for copies for use in their activities or workshops and requests came in from Alaska to Indonesia.

Too often, reporters shy away from covering HIV/AIDS because they aren't adequately prepared. Admittedly, the subject can be intimidating - it seems to consist of abstruse technicalities enveloped in an environment of fear, prejudice, denial, cultural issues and even political considerations. The issues are many and, of course, sensitivities are high.

This Media Manual intends to demystify the subject, set out a road map for the uninitiated reporter and provide fresh inputs to those already covering HIV/AIDS.

The chapters address basics, the epidemic, updates on recent happenings and several tools for reporters — ethical considerations, appropriate language, analytical frameworks and story ideas. Journalists work under a variety of pressures — deadlines and competition among them — and our collective task was to make their task a little bit easier. The work of all those who made this Manual possible will be rewarded if this is achieved.
