<br><div class="gmail_quote">Dear Commrades,<br><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span><b><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Advice the UNAIDS
Secretariat on our new strategy on HIV and young people</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Did
you know that every day 3000 young people become infected with HIV, and more
than 5 million young people are living with HIV, with only a minority of having
access to lifesaving treatment?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">We
invite you to help develop a new strategy on HIV and young people to change
this, through an online collaborative project called CrowdOutAIDS.org.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">CrowdOutAIDS.org uses
online and offline tools to connect young people inside and outside the AIDS
response, to share knowledge and experiences for concrete action. We want to
work together with young people for a stronger and more effective action on
AIDS.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">You
will be given the opportunity to shape the new strategy on HIV and young
people, through 8 regional discussion forums in six languages, different voting
<span> </span>and ranking applications, and finally
through a wiki-like platform for drafting the strategy. This approach will
ensure that the recommendations for action in the strategy reflect the needs
and challenges faced by young people. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">This
is a radically new way for the UNAIDS Secretariat to collaborate with young
people, transferring decision making power to you. So sign up, and take a part
in shaping the future AIDS response at CrowdOutAIDS.org. <br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br><span style="font-size: 11pt;"></span> </p>
