HIV is treatable, but stigmatization kills! | Pauline Moret | TEDxUniversiteitVanAmsterdam

Pauline Moret’s mission is to educate people about HIV/AIDS and to help put and end to the stigmatization of people living with HIV. She has been on this mission since 2006 when she was diagnosed with an acute hiv infection in hospital, much to her surprise at that time. Her talk combines both her personal experience of living with hiv, and what it is like for anyone living with hiv nowadays. Pauline Moret was born in the Netherlands but has lived, studied and worked throughout Europe, the USA and in Asia. Fashion management and communication were her main expertise until she decided to deepen her practice and teaching of yoga and meditation. She works as a yoga & chi kung teacher, freelance model, promoter, fashion consultant and documentary maker. Pauline Moret’s mission is to educate people about HIV/AIDS and to help put an end to the stigmatization of people living with HIV. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
