Event Description

Many young people live in urban informal settlements. These sites face huge health challenges, including HIV and violence, and so it is difficult to intervene there. A structural, participatory approach, Stepping Stones and Creating Futures, works with young people in such settlements in South Africa to transform gender norms and strengthen livelihoods in order to reduce violence and HIV risk.
 
This webinar provides an overview of the Stepping Stones and Creating Futures intervention, the outcomes of the pilot and the challenges of implementing it in difficult circumstances. Andy Gibbs opens a discussion on how we can strengthen the outcomes of such programmes in the future. Andrew Gibbs is a researcher at the Health Economics and HIV/AIDS Research Division (HEARD) at the University of KwaZulu-Natal.
