In Charge! Action Learning on HIV and AIDS for Youth
Catholic Relief Services, East Africa Regional Office and Ethiopia Country Office, 2007. In Charge! is a participatory methodology that facilitates depth of discussion around VIV and AIDS and encourages youths to take precautions to protect themselves from HIV infection. The title In Charge! reflects this aim of youths taking charge of their own lives. In Charge!, with its five activities, is designed to be used in a classroom for one day, and ideally, to be implemented to cover an entire school in one to two weeks. It can be used with other groups of youths, such as anti-AIDS clubs. It requires a trained and experienced facilitator who first trains teachers in the methodology and then the teachers serve as cofacilitators.
