Introduction

We are 5 HBO Communication Students from Hogeschool INHolland in Diemen, the Netherlands. At the moment we are at the start of our graduation project about health experience and HIV/Aids in Belarus and The Ukraine.

The first step in this huge project is to gather as much information as possible about these two countries. Important issues such as culture, the environment, human rights, economics, the history and statistics about diseases, health and life expectancy need to be analyzed.

Luckely this subject, health experience and HIV/Aids, has already been studied by other students and experts. We can benefit from the available information, to make a good concept for our project.

This weblog is meant for people who are interested in health experience especially in the countries Belarus and The Ukraine. We will keep this blog updated with news and facts and there will be room for discussion and comments about those topics.

We would like to know your opinion about the subjects we publish on this blog.
At the same time we are curious on the opinions and experiences from people who are from Belarus or The Ukraine or people who have lived there.

Besides, there is a website that will inform you even more about our project. This website is still under construction and will be very soon back online.

We are looking forward to provide you with plenty of good and interesting topics that will keep the debate going strong.


Sincerely yours,

The projectteam
