Pressure
make!
Remembering HIV/AIDS yesterday and today
"Put the pressure on!" - Under this title, we are launching a joint project with the Gay Museum Berlin and the Berlin University of the Arts.
The project asks: How can intergenerational dialogue help us to successfully prevent HIV now and in the future, reduce stigma and arm ourselves against future pandemics?
Generational dialogue
HIV/Aids in generational dialogue - remembrance meets prevention
For younger people, the early days of HIV/AIDS are now a distant memory. For many older people, however, the political battles for information, prevention and self-determined protection are still vivid memories. How can the dialogue between the generations help to keep the virus in check?
The project
„Spread the Word, not the Virus!“
At the invitation of the IWWIT campaign, design students at Berlin University of the Arts are developing an intergenerational publication project together with Professor Franziska Morlok and curator Michael Annoff. The project is a reminder of the possibilities of prevention and communication in an age of analogue design.
The evening
The focus is on intergenerational dialogue.
Under the moderation of Michael Annoff speak Eugen Januschke from the Gay Museum, Jonathan Gregory and Ahmet Sitki Demir from the IWWIT team with people from the queer and positive communities.

FAQ about the project
„Druck machen!“ is an intergenerational publication project of the prevention campaign ICH WEISS WAS ICH TU. Design students at Berlin University of the Arts are developing analogue print works together with curator Michael Annoff and Professor Franziska Morlok. The posters are a reminder of the history of HIV and AIDS and emphasise how important education and prevention still are today.
„Apply pressure!“ recalls the early days of HIV/AIDS, activism and the fight for information and protection. At the same time, it addresses how people live with HIV today, what options are available for HIV prevention and how we can remain united in solidarity.
The prints and posters developed in the project will be shown and documented as part of „Druck machen!“. Parts of the publication can later be made visible in exhibitions, online contributions or accompanying materials - as a reminder of the history of HIV/AIDS and as a contribution to current prevention.
