Providing life skills to female pupils

By Raymond John

The five day training on HIV-Aids was meant to prepare girls to face challenges of life that may prompt them to embark on dangerous lifestyles that could cost them their dignity or lives. We intend to spread the word and mission onto the female youths living in rural areas.

HIV-Aids and child pregnancies are what reduce female students from  being promising future leaders or parents to losers in life. It is the first time I am undergoing this training and have realized that they are quite useful in helping save our pupils and students.

The training has equipped us with skills that will come  handy back at our schools where we intend to educate other teachers as well as students on these important life skills. The training series are tailor-made for female students starting from age 12.

Stigma against people with HIV is still a problem in our society and this hinders the war against such infection. As we observe the World’s AIDS day the latest mission is to ensure that by 2010, that is next year, many victims should be receiving proper care, nutrition and health services such as retroviral drugs that must be made available to all, easily and free of charge.
