It bet Bill Easterly got SO excited about this gutsy ad giving the middle finger to SIDA.
Before he realized it was a Spanish AIDS awareness poster. (Via Osocio.)

Transitionland, you are hilarious, I like this. All the best.
PS There are enough Spanish-speaking development economists (including me) around, that I wonder if Swedish SIDA ever thought about changing their name.
Truce called.
I have often wondered the same about SIDA’s name/acronym, especially given the verbal SIDA/CIDA confusion.
I still laugh when I meet Swedish Cooperation ppl.
BTW, SIDA’s also AIDS in French…
Vietnamese, too…
Causes plenty of brow-furrowing and long-mole-hair-twisting where HIV/AIDS and harm-reduction programs are funded by… SIDA.
ROFLcopter!
