01 July 2002

When and where misinformation, taboos, prejudice and fear regarding HIV/AIDS predominate, fundamental human rights are repeatedly abused and violated. Young people are often those most vulnerable and exposed. This kit shows that many young people are demonstrating their commitment to take up the challenge and reverse this situation successfully. It is intended to provide young people with information, motivation and inspiration to undertake the creative, daring and crucial action needed to make respect for human rights in the context of HIV/AIDS become a reality for all.
