consult teachers, health professionals, young people, educational advisors,
teacher trainers and other stakeholders on their perceptions, knowledge and
current understanding of issues surrounding sexual health locally, and in the
context of the impact of STD’s such as HIV/AIDS on global poverty.
We have used participatory development planning tools to develop a draft project
plan with stakeholders.
We are at present assimilating , digesting and cracking the data gained from the two sessions.

We went to investigate the viability of a project that we would like to be involved in working with women, sexual health and rights. Small World Theatre would help train and establish the aspects of the project that would use an element of theatre. SWT would also have some administrative role too.
This training project for AIDS orphans will enable them to deliver accurate and culturally sensitive information while engaging very hard to reach communities in a participatory approach to community learning and behavioral change concerning sexual health.
We desperately need the money to fund this. This work saves lives.
