Source:UNIFEM and AWID Aimed at young women who are actively advocating around the issue of gender equality and HIV/AIDS in their communities, this manual is based on the thoughts, opinions, stories and concrete strategies provided by over 500 women who were participating in an online discussion that explored the intersections between youth, gender and HIV/AIDS
; emerging challenges and successes in HIV/AIDS for young people, particularly young women; and ways in which youth can participate in addressing gender and youth issues in HIV/AIDS programs. In addition to providing an overview of HIV/AIDS as a gender issue and highlighting youth and women’s organizations that are active in this area, the manual provides a useful guide for planning a workshop for young women on this topic. It includes notes for the facilitator, activities and handouts that can be reproduced for this purpose
