YOUTH TECHNICAL RESOURCE TEAM ON HIV/AIDS MEETS IN ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA
(CARICOM Secretariat, Georgetown, Guyana) Members of the Mini Grant Programme (MGP) Youth Technical Resource Team from six participating countries will meet at the Heritage Hotel in Antigua and Barbuda on 24-26, February, 2007 to review the draft MGP training/participant modules and handbook for trainers and youth workers in HIV/AIDS.
The Mini-Grant Programme was designed to train youth to develop projects that contribute towards a reduced incidence of HIV/AIDS among young people and is funded under the Pan Caribbean Partnership (PANCAP) Against HIV/AIDS in collaboration with the CARICOM Youth Ambassador Programme (CYAP).
The programme was piloted in The Bahamas, Belize, Grenada, St. Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia and St. Vincent and the Grenadines in 2005 and is being implemented in the Dominican Republic, Barbados, Dominica, Suriname, the British Virgin Islands and Trinidad and Tobago.
Under the coordination of the CARICOM Secretariat, the Meeting will review the draft MGP handbook with a view to completing a Final Draft Document representing four MGP training/participant modules.
In addition, the Meeting will seek to build consensus on CARICOM’s draft regional report on lessons learnt and best practices in implementing funded MGP projects as well as identify mechanisms for sustainability of MGP Youth Technical Resource Teams.
The participating countries are Saint Lucia, Grenada, St Vincent and the Grenadines, The Bahamas, St Kitts/ Nevis and Suriname.
