ConocoPhillips’ Nigerian business unit, in partnership with the Nigerian Business Coalition Against AIDS (NIBUCAA)conducted an awareness campaign among its workforce with the theme “in unity we mitigate stigma.” The theme was chosen because the stigma of HIV/AIDS has many negative impacts for people beyond the effect of the virus itself. The awareness program included a company presentation on its HIV/AIDS position, presentations on HIV/AIDS by NIBUCCA, presentations by people living with HIV/AIDS about their experiences, and the distribution of condoms and a demonstration of the proper use of condoms.
