Our main goal is to educate and inform people how important HIV/AIDS prevention is. Every year Polish artists, together with medical specialist, campaign partners, and media, join our campaign to inform Polish society about HIV/AIDS. Symposiums for medical personnel and patients are organized annually, along with special actions that promote the idea of the campaign. The author of Project Test is Agata Kwiatkowska. “In 2009 my friends agreed to support me in, what was then, this crazy idea of creating a social campaign about HIV testing. They agreed to have photos of their faces taken to encourage Polish people to get tested. The idea was to show that it was ordinary and natural, and that it takes as long as drinking a coffee in a coffeehouse” – says Agata Kwiatkowska, the author of the campaign.

“Project Test was not only an action to encourage people to get tested for HIV – most of all it was citizens’ initiative where dozens of young, educated, aware people showed their faces just to prove that taking the test is something natural and obvious for them. The pictures where signed with words associated with testing, such as: ‘easy’, ‘quick’, ‘safe’, ‘together’, ‘for you’, ‘for me’, ‘after Erasmus’, and many others. The idea of the campaign is to fight against the stereotype ‘it doesn’t concern me’, and to show that getting tested is something obvious”; – adds Kwiatkowska.
