Contain This: The Latest in Global Health Security

Welcome to Contain This, brought to you by the Indo-Pacific Centre for Health Security, an initiative of the Australian Government's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
As we mark World AIDS Day on December 1, we bring you the story of one of our projects.
The ACTUP-PNG project is founded on a long-term partnership with affected communities.
In this episode, we discuss the exciting things the program is doing, with ACTUP's three Principal Investigators, Dr Janet Gare, head of the Sexual and Reproductive Health Unit at the PNG Institute of Medical Research (PNGIMR), Dr Angela Kelly-Hanku, who holds joint positions at PNGIMR and the University of New South Wales' Kirby Institute and Steven Badman from the Kirby Institute.
