IT'S NOT THE END OF THE ROAD! – The LIVE UP Heroes Roadshow travelled across the region to Jamaica, Barbados, St. Lucia, the Bahamas and Trinidad and Tobago. By the time this journey had reached its end, partnerships were formed, goals were met, members were energized and relations were strenghtened.
CBMP MEMBERS LIVING UP! - With the first phase of the CBMP LIVE UP Heroes Roadshow successfully completed, broadcast members are motivated more than ever to do their part in helping to stem the spread of HIV/AIDS in the region.
CBMP BUILDING PARTNERSHIPS - It has long been accepted that a key component to fighting the spread of HIV/AIDS in the region is through coordinated effort and strong partnership outreach. The CBMP demonstrated this most effective principle during the recent LIVE UP Heroes Roadshow where local Commissions, Ministries of Health and foundations were invited to participate as presenters during the event.
THE HEROES AMONG US - We often look to celebrities and people in the spotlight as our role models and heroes. They seem larger than life and occupy a world of which many of us can only dream. It helps to know however that there are "everyday" people like us out there, like the CBMP LIVE UP Heroes, who are heroic in their actions and behaviour and are inspiring and leading.
