This action kit is for young people and adults who run youth programmes which look at sexual and reproductive health issues such as: life skills and HIV. It aims to raise awareness of the importance of gender issues in sexual and reproductive health and to provide practical ideas for introducing gender awareness into existing youth programmes. The first section of the kit has ideas for youth leaders on how to introduce gender issues into their youth programmes. The kit is then divided into three separate sections on gender, gender and relationships, gender and sexual and reproductive health. Each section includes background information, fact sheets and activities. While this kit is not a training manual to be used on its own, not a complete manual on HIV/AIDS or on sexual and reproductive health, or on working with young people, it is a useful resource for youth educators working in this field.
