YAFNet Red Ribbon
The Youth Action Forum for Networking (YAFNet) is a youth-led, MOYA and SDA Church supported alliance of over 500 young leaders and adult allies working in Kenya and look to spread worldwide. More than half of the 5 million new HIV infections each year occur among young people under 25 years old, with 6,000 new infections each day. YAFNet empowers young leaders with the skills, knowledge, resources and opportunities they need to scale up HIV/AIDS interventions amongst their peers.

YAFNet prioritizes:
1) networking and sharing of best practices;
2) technical assistance and capacity building;
3) political advocacy;
4) preparation for international conferences

YAFNet operates on through local gatherings and regional partnerships.

Working Ways for Behavior Change Campaign
Translations available in: English (original) | French

I have been thinking, why is that even as we fight about the problem of HIV/Aids infections, it is still spreading, and there is still some stigmatization tagged to it? It seems that there is something somewhere that we are missing. I have experienced the loss of a loved on to the infection and I understand how people feel when they lose a loved one from the infection. We need the way forward on how to help the youth embrace the concept of behavior change and this can be done by including them in the major bodies involved in the steering the campaigns to fight HIV/Aids.
