Our TV programme Beat It is watched by nearly a million people each week. Beat It is a bridge between HIV activists and government officials. Beat It has made a big difference in people’s lives. All the materials are positive, never negative. People say, “I know you from Beat It” and they tell me they are on ARVs.

This web presentation is based on a book with photographs by Wolfgang Tillmans. It follows a global meeting held in Cape Town in 2006 organised by the Treatment Action Campaign, South Africa and i-Base, England.
