Arts-based Activities for HIV/AIDS Education

In 2004-2005, Global Youth Voices conducted a pilot project with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), www.unesco.org.

UNESCO-associated schools in Mozambique, Vietnam, Slovenia and Egypt used visual arts to explore HIV through the perspective of emotional, physical and social health.

The Global Youth Voices process honors UNESCO’s commitment to the 4 Pillars of Education.

Learning to know - by thinking critically about community concerns

Learning to be - by establishing values in relation to issues under discussion

Learning to live together - by addressing community concerns
