In West Africa, AUYA grantees organized a massive campaign on HIV+/AIDS through 42 cities. AUYA grantee partners organized life skills trainings, judicial accompaniment, medical accompaniment and psychosocial support, among others. They plan to establish a transit centre for offering temporary shelter to migrants and have trained other members who work as activists in communities

AUYA’s grantee partners bring social justice to their communities through four major lenses:

1) Raising individual awareness

2) Increasing equitable access to resources and services

3) Transforming the legal & policy environment

4) Transforming social values, practices and norms.
