The Trail of Promising Practices for Indigenous Youth-led Social Change

This guide showcases a Trail of Promising Practices for engaging with Indigenous youth to address critical issues in their communities through arts-based methods. 

Drawing on ongoing work addressing sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) with and by Indigenous girls and young women in Canada, this Trail explores the complexity of youth-centred spaces where Indigenous youth are supported to address specific issues of SGBV as well as other forms of violence in their lives and communities.

Youth-centered spaces are ever-important across global contexts impacted by legacies of colonial systems and violence, which typically distribute power unevenly, for example according to gender, age, and Indigeneity.

HIV and AIDS in Teacher Education

Evaluation Report of a Pilot Project in South African Higher Education Institutions

The HIV and Teacher Education Pilot Project was initiated under HEAIDS Phase 2 and was premised on the critical importance of the capacity of the education and training system to deal with the challenges posed by teaching and learning in an HIV/AIDS affected and infected society. The objective of this project was to ensure sector-wide engagement with these challenges, and to provide the necessary support and resources for the development of educators who are equipped to deal
effectively with the HIV/AIDS epidemic and its impact as it manifests in their work environment, and on their personal and community lives.
