November 2009 is the month I turned 30–quite a milestone–It was the most hectic that I can recall in years.
For the majority of the time, I was engaged in research on HIV prevention for Jamaican youth–which culminated in a presentation of findings (Securing our Future_ Presentation) and the distribution of the Report, which is featured in the my previous post.
HIV prevention
The following Report, Securing our Future: Lessons in HIV prevention for girls and young women (Jamaica) is a follow-up to the ‘Report Card on HIV Prevention for girls and young women, Jamaica’ (2006).
It presents current data on key points raised in the Report Card, outlines the recommendations of youth, from the National Youth Declaration, for addressing the gaps and challenges raised by the Report Card, and evaluates the data to justify the current value and importance of the Report Card.
