10 DoA. Day 07

The 7^th day of the campaign was interesting in Algeria. Y-PEER presented a song to peers in different departments in our country dedicated to the 10 DoA and Zero target of UNAIDS. The song was created by young peer educators: Badis who wrote the lyrics and was a main singer and Omar who was responsible for music composition, recording and arrangement. Main objective was to promote youth leadership in what concerns them and also to strengthen youth engagement to reach the Zero target in the fight against AIDS. Enjoy the song and spread the 10 DoA messages around the world http://youtu.be/-vOPw6MjOJE.

10DoA. Day 05

On 5^th of September, Yacine, peer educator of Y-PEER Algeria presented two wonderful pieces of poetry.

In the first one, he talked about stigma and discrimination that young people living with HIV suffer from. He advocated for a mobilization of the community to treat PLHIV just like anyone else because we are all same and HIV can no longer be a reason to put innocent people apart.

In the second one, he spoke about youth voices and meaningful participation, empowerment and leadership of young people.

You can find both poetries on these links:
