Media Release: AIDS Action Council ACT launches original podcast: Check It Out
Written by AIDS Action Council on 04 February 2018 .
"CHECK IT OUT" - Supporting and celebrating Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex and Queer Communities in Canberra and beyond.
The podcast has become a formidable tool for communication and promotion. The AIDS Action Council is well placed to take full advantage of this online phenomenon with the highly anticipated launch of its Podcast series. "Check It Out".
Not only will "Check it Out" extend the AIDS Action Council's reach in terms of HIV prevention education, sexual health promotion, gender diversity awareness and LGBTIQ community issues, it prides itself on being quintessentially Canberra.
Canberra is a unique and fascinating city that, on the one hand, feels a little like a country town, but on the other, is an epicentre of knowledge and decision making in Australia. Canberra is growing and developing faster than any state in the country in population and Canberra's cultural landscape seems to be following this trend. This is the perfect time to remind people the AIDS Action Council is working hard to keep important issues on the front page.
Dr Tim Dyke President of the AIDS Action Council said "We have a wonderful opportunity to tell our stories and shine a light on the amazing people who live and work in Canberra. We also have a real chance to communicate with people far and wide in an extraordinary way and to connect with our communities in the ACT - and the rest of the world. Whether you're an isolated young person in a country town or somebody planning a visit to our nation's capital, you will know about the AIDS Action Council and how you can connect with us. "
"Check it Out" will launch on Monday February 5 consisting of several episodes with regular new episodes to follow. You can access the entire series via the AIDS Action Council website or wherever you download your favourite podcasts. Visit our website to listen now: aidsaction.org.au/podcast
