SAfAIDS together with Oxfam in Zimbabwe have put together this beautifully illustrated booklet for their Securing Rights in the Context of HIV and AIDS project. It is targeted at families but can also be used by everyone in a young persons circle of care to support earlier disclosure, earlier treatment, stronger support systems and a reduction in self-stigma.
The booklet uses research findings from a study with young people and their caregivers from selected districts under Midlands, Matabeleland North, Matabeleland South and Bulawayo provinces in Zimbabwe. We used innovative approaches to data collection; roles plays, letters, voice recordings and more. Central to the project was the voice of young people. For young people, by young people.
Throughout it has a simple Think, Talk, Act approach.
And a beautiful Disclosure Tree pull-out poster.
There are quizzes and contact sheets so that follow-up support, even outside of Oxfams programme, is encouraged.
