Link Up Partners, ATHENA Network, the Global Youth Coalition on HIV and AIDS, and the International HIV/AIDS Alliance, developed this resource to support the meaningful engagement of young people living with HIV. The briefing paper, available in English and French, is accompanied by an Aiming High Scorecard, which can be used by young people and other stakeholders to assess how well programs and organizations are implementing meaningful youth engagement, based on Link Up's Top Ten Strategies. Based on principles and recommendations surfaced by Link Up youth advocates, the resource provides practical guidance and examples for shifting the position of young people in the HIV response from being service recipients, to becoming leaders, researchers, advocates, mentors, implementers, educators and providers.
