Subject: Youth RISE- World AIDS Day


Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Today as we remember the harms we have experienced globally by the HIV
epidemic over the past 30 years, it is important that we do not forget the
impact this epidemic has had on young people who use drugs. If we are to
reach our collective goal of zero new infections, it is crucial that our
young people have full access to evidence based HIV prevention services,
that their rights are protected and fulfilled, and we remove punitive
sanctions that impede the HIV response.

To mark World AIDS Day, Youth RISE has released a short animation video
that highlights the vulnerability of young people who use drugs to HIV and
solutions for mitigating the spread of HIV among these youth.

Please circulate amongst your networks!

Warmly,

Anita
