	Dear GYCAers, I take this opportunity to wish you a happy new year as we look forward to a prosperous 2012, as far as getting to zero new infections, zero stigma and discrimination and zero AIDS related deaths is concerned. Last year was a great year for youth engagement in the HIV/AIDS response. We have come a long way in addressing HIV/AIDS initiatives at the community, national, regional and global level. Let us look forward to strengthing our commitment this year, by dialoguing with one another sharing opportunities as well as challenges and solutions with the aim of making progress in HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment, care and support among young people. As we look forward to making remarkable progress in 2012 and beyound, kindly share your thoughts, suggestions, strategies and ideas on what we can do to halt the spread of the pandemic as well as critically address stigma and discrimination which has remained a challenge. As GYCA members in the regions, we will be hosting many online meetings to discuss the way forward in regards to the HIV/AIDS response. Do send ideas or topics you would like us to discuss as a region. Thank you for your commitment to youth engagement in the HIV/AIDS response. Have a fantastic 2012.!
