IGNORANCE IS NOT AN OPTION!

 

  Project objective is to introduce a two-layered innovative

  approach to maintaining low HIV/AIDS prevalence in Egypt.

 

 

What is the "two-layered" approach?

The first layer involves collaboration and partnership with the  private sector to combat ignorance of HIV/AIDS in Egypt. This is accomplished through tailor-made orientations sessions - AAA Orientations.  The sessions are provided to companies in return for a financial contribution that AAA uses to support community-based HIV/AIDS awareness campaigns and related activities primarily in rural villages in Upper Egypt. That forms the second layer.

 

AAA Orientations and the Private Sector

 

       AAA Orientations help

  • Increase staff members' knowledge about risky behavior and HIV/AIDS prevention.

  • Staff apply general messages to their own situations and behavior

  • Give staff the tools for making personal informed decisions about their exposure to risk and,

  • How they can protect their families

And ultimately continue to lead a

healthy and productive lives

and keep HIV/AIDS prevalence low in Egypt

 

 

AAA increases the knowledge base and raises awareness about HIV/AIDS as well as preventive measures amongst health care providers and other community members.

AAA builds useful bridges between community members and local health units to make critical reproductive health information, with a focus on HIV/AIDS, and services accessible to youth and women.
