Flipbook on HIV and AIDS Education for Informal Workers

A flip book has been developed for narrating the story of a migrant construction worker through pictures and his journey from being unaware to becoming aware about HIV/AIDS/STIs, and access to health care services etc.

Little or no literacy is one of the limitations in reaching the workers in the informal economy with preventive messages on HIV/AIDS/STIs. Keeping this in view, a flip book has been developed for narrating the story of a migrant construction worker through pictures and his journey from being unaware to becoming aware about HIV/AIDS/STIs, and access to health care services etc.

The flipbook is meant for use as a communication aid by the outreach workers/ peer educators/ health educators of the informal and migrant workers interventions NGOs, trade unions other civil society organizations. It will provide guidelines/tools to the health educators/ outreach workers for conducting interactive sessions on HIV prevention, care and support with workers in the informal economy using a story-telling format through flip charts.
