Reduction of HIV Incidence
Leveraging sustainable partnerships with tertiary institutions, community organizations and 45+ private sector companies the project develops human capacity by encouraging healthy sexual choices, promoting community service, teaching leadership skills and providing employment and vocational training. Empowering young women to envision a successful, economically stable future and equipping them to nurture their gifts will give them a sense of control over their lives, reducing their susceptibility to high risk behaviors such as age-disparate and transactional sex.
