Scarlett Johansson is on her way back from Africa, where she visited several AIDS clinics.

The actress spent four days in Rwanda with charity (RED) to raise awareness of the disease.

‘It was important for me to come here and see the issues we're up against firsthand,’ Scarlett said in a statement.

‘I came here with an open mind, wanting to listen, understand and learn.

'I leave with the overwhelming understanding that the small action of making a (RED) choice in your purchases...has an enormous impact on the lives of people in countries like Rwanda.’

Scarlett, 23, admitted in 2006 that she had two HIV tests a year.
