YA Theme - 2006

H.E.L.P.ing Youth Fight against HIV/AIDS at a Global Level

During the 2005 BERMUN conference, the Youth Assembly established the HIV/AIDS Education and Learning Program (H.E.L.P.) At this year’s BERMUN, the Youth Assembly aims at combating HIV/AIDS on a global level by using H.E.L.P. as a model for concrete action. H.E.L.P. is based on a peer-to-peer network, whose goal is to educate youth around the world about the existing threat of HIV/AIDS and to focus on methods for prevention. By enlisting H.E.L.P. Youth Ambassadors, the task of combating the spread of HIV/AIDS and the fight against discrimination for the affected will be carried into schools, universities and local communities. The scope of the Youth Assembly’s efforts will be expanded beyond last year’s focus on Eastern Europe to include participants from Ghana and Kenya.
