Chupal Sangpo is a pioneering HIV/AIDS awareness advocate from Tibet. Born in a nomadic family in Kardze, he has collaborated with Tibetan community leaders to form the first Tibetan AIDS Group, dedicated to providing awareness on the spread of HIV/AIDS, Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and health-related topics in Tibet. Chupal has taken his public health message across the vast expanse of the plateau – visiting schools, villages, and towns, some of which are located in the most remote and underserved regions of Tibet. Chupal has also published numerous bilingual health pamphlets and brochures, including a book, Questions and Answers on HIV/AIDS Prevention, public service announcement videos and releases daily audios, videos, and messages in Tibetan language on his wechat account where he has over 100,000 followers.
