The DAA booth at the Mano Mundo festival last weekend was a huge success, with hundreds of young people storming the booth wanting to customize their own T-shirt, write a safe sex message on the wall, speak out on video or have themselves covered in 'handle with care' tape- and sometimes doing all of it- in return for a couple of free condoms and eternal fame.
We asked all our visitors to write a speical safe sex message on our wall. |

In our daily fashion lifes, where we care about what to wear, who's hot and what is not, we sometimes forget about things that really matter. Luckly, organisations such as Designers Against AIDS remind us of that and that’s why -as a side project of Models Against AIDS- Dominique Models came in contact with the fantastic people of ‘La Maison Shalom’ in Burundi, Africa. |
