Dear all
GNP+ would like to invite young people living with HIV to apply to attend a
meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in November 2011.
The meeting will be the final part of a consultative process through which
we are developing a Leadership Programme for young people living with HIV,
as a part of the Y+ Programme. The first part of the consultative process
begins with e-consultations and focus group discussions taking place in
September and October - (more information will be coming about these
consultations in the next few days).
The Y+ Leadership Programme will support young people living with HIV to
acquire the skills and experience required to take on leadership roles
within the positive community and throughout the HIV response, at the
community, national, regional and global levels. Attached you will find a
concept note for the development of the leadership programme for further
information.
We are looking for a small number of individuals to attend the consultative
meeting in November (1-2) 2011, in Amsterdam, with a number of other YPLHIV
and established leaders and key stakeholders. The purpose of the meeting is
to get a fuller understanding of the leadership capacity needs of YPLHIV and
what enablers and challenges exist to enhance this capacity. This will
inform the final stage of the programme design process.

We are particularly encouraging applications from young women living with
