This
information is provided
by The ARSE Foundation for anyone concerned about the high levels of
HIV and HCV among people who inject drugs and who are angry about the
lack of action being taken to stem the pandemics. HIV killed 3
million people in 2003. It is expected that 5 million more people will
be living with the virus by the end of 2004.
The Arse Foundation needs
your support to educate the community about the real motives behind
retractable syringe technology and to implement strategies aimed at
reducing the levels of HIV and hepatitis C among people who inject
drugs.
One of the devastating effects of the war on drugs is the loss of life
due to the pandemic of blood borne viruses. Even more devastating is
the lack of action on the part of the mega-corporations. These
corporations have the means to immediately reduce HIV transmission
rates across the world but they choose to profit from the pandemic
instead.
Funds donated to The Arse Foundation will be used for ongoing education
around the impact of government drug policy on the health and wellbeing
of the community. We will have a primary focus on young people, who are
bearing the brunt of the HIV epidemic and who are being forced further
underground by reactive government drug policy or are being
incarcerated in government sponsored breeding houses for HIV and
hepatitis C.
The Arse Foundation is an initiative of the Network Against
Prohibition, a Darwin based drug user organisation that is campaigning
for an end to the destructive war on drugs.

throw into the ring. If you are in the NT you can get involved in NAP
activities such as poster and leaflet runs, direct actions, the
UnderGround needle exchange program.
If you aren't lucky enough to be in Australia's outback, then maybe you
could send us some syringes, butterflies, swabs, waters, filters etc
for our UnderGround needle exchange. Stationary is always useful and
thing else that you think we might be able to use.
Send it all to
