For World Aids Day this report has the explicit goal to make viewers aware of these important issues. Every day will be at least 3 people diagnosed with HIV in Belgium. If you aren’t aware of this, then it can still happen to everybody every day. It is still very actual nowadays and a big proof is the confession of American actor Charlie Sheen04d6d7d36ef6ab5a0b40373aee0e8a5e a few weeks ago that he has HIV for almost two years now.

The aim: to help affected people in an unconventional way and to fight against the taboo status of HIV/AIDS in our society. Therefore, Life Ball is an exuberant festivity that celebrates life and makes a loud statement in the fight against HIV and AIDS – resounding across the boundaries of Vienna and Austria. The broad national and international attention is particularly necessary, since the Life Ball also serves as voice of HIV positive people or people suffering from AIDS. The threat through AIDS is still present in the whole world; the HI-virus is deadly. HIV and AIDS can affect everybody regardless of gender, age, social status or sexual orientation.
