African Youth Alliance (AYA)
The African Youth Alliance (AYA) was a five-year collaboration (2001-2006) among the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), the Program for Appropriate Technology in Health (PATH), and Pathfinder International. The Gates Foundation funded the project. AYA’s goals were to reduce the incidence and spread of HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections and improve overall adolescent reproductive health in Botswana, Ghana, Tanzania, and Uganda. A selection of AYA’s publications is listed below, and more can be found on the organization’s
Web site.
This 32-page summary summarizes the findings of the project by country and by theme, with data on the four countries and discussions of new models used. (2007)
