Judd, who became the ambassador of the growing global initiative in January 2002, has long advocated that educating young people is key to stopping the spread of HIV/AIDS. In 2004, Judd traveled to Asia where she visited clinics, schools, churches, temples, and mosques and youth projects, and participated in the 2004 International AIDS Conference in Bangkok.
