“Advocating for VCT, Halt to HIV, Hapatitis B, and Gender based violence (GBV) among the youth”.

The 2^nd half of March in Centres Sociaux Loyola (CSL) (Lomé) has been a busy moment. Activities in line with 20^th anniversary of AJAN occupied the youth. The Office of Prevention and youth education of CSL mobilized the young people around the Youth campaign of HIV, Hepatitis B testing.

In addition, a youth caravan was also done aiming at drawing attention of the people on the danger of alcohol, Gender based violence, early pregnancy, transmissible infections such as HIV and Hepatitis as etc.  Today people, especially the youth, tend to neglect them, although they are still a reality in our society, and they are spreading causing a lot of suffering to communities and individuals.  Activities are planned to end on April 4^th.

Various message was written on banner such as “jeune! Prends soin de ta santé et celle des autres” (Youth, care for your health and the one of others).
