Short Summary
|
This manual is designed to enable young women to prepare and facilitate training on a host of issues that are important to them. A joint publication of the World YWCA and UNFPA, the manual was developed by young women from different regions and contains modules on young women's leadership, economic justice, HIV and AIDS, human rights, peace, self esteem and body image, sexual and reproductive health and violence against women. It contains many tips for facilitators for working with young women and includes warm-up, introductory and ice-breakers activities. The issues are complex and the publication has been developed for young women to lead themselves in learning more about the issues through fun and participatory activities. Trainings and workshops can be designed using the entire manual or by pulling out modules of interest for shorter sessions. It was tested in six countries and was launched at the 2006 International AIDS Conference in Toronto.
