The Youth Pavilion within the Global Village is a youth-focused space for meetings, forums, evening sessions; a space to highlight and showcase youth achievements, to facilitate networking opportunities with youth and adults in dialogue, a youth media hub, a lounge, and continues the momentum from the Youth Pre-Conference. Throughout the conference daily sessions are available within the Youth Pavilion to prepare young delegates to participate in the conference, advocacy planning, how to record and report back to your community on lessons learned, and will include evening summaries from the Youth Rapporteur Team each day.
The Pavilion is the hub for youth communications and youth media at the conference, where delegates can participate in online discussions, create their own online conference blog, report back about conference activities, and create audiocasts for the website.
The Pavilion will showcase youth work on HIV/AIDS issues and support youth delegates at the conference. Pavilion exhibits will demonstrate that young people - those most affected by the epidemic - are actively working toward solutions.
Discussion Forums, Skills Building Workshops, art and video will be showcased in the Youth Pavilion and focus on peer-based education, youth-led initiatives, young women and girls; indigenous youth; young gay and bi-sexual men; safer sex, harm reduction and drug use; effective advocacy capacity building; and others will be presented. There will be a session on empowering youth living with HIV/AIDS with skills tailored for positive youth to speak out openly and more effectively in their communities/institutions and ways of acquiring treatment regionally or internationally, and a private space for positive youth to convene.
Comprehensive information about Youth Pavilion and daily programme of events will be updated here soon
