AIM Uganda, working in partnership with the Uganda
AIDS Commission and President Museveni's office for youth affairs,
is mobilizing youths throughout the country to take an active
role in HIV/AIDS prevention and care programmes in their districts.
Eight 2-day workshops for about 1500 youths each will be held
throughout the country. Youths are identified from leaders of
youth clubs, youth councils, and secondary and tertiary institutions
of learning.
Youths discuss the HIV/AIDS epidemic in relation
to the country's social economic, environmental, and political
dimensions. In addition, educational, agricultural and security
programmes are shared. AIM is happy to be working with the support
of Yoweri Museveni whose leadership in the fight against HIV/AIDS
is recognized worldwide.
