Introduction

Studies have not yet seen the extent to which a person may survive with HIV and AIDS. Individuals who tested positive from two decades ago are still maintaining a high standard of health. The lacking support in the community drives individuals to delay testing,

preventing them from taking early action towards maintenance of health and from adopting safe behaviors to avoid transmission of these deadly viruses. Discrimination further enhances neglect and abandonment of already sick patients. Though these victims are most vulnerable, they are disregarded to the highest degree, often shunned and deserted of support. Often they are burdened with concern for a family that will remain without assistance at their passing. The combination of these factors leads to premature deaths which may increase to a substantial level in future, if ignored now. With this understanding, the primary need of the community becomes apparent. Though multiple establishments are centered on the clinical factors of staving off the biological consequences of HIV/AIDS, a truly lacking institution is one which battles the social issues that tend to dramatically increase the level of fatality for patients. The SAVE YOUR SELF is a project of SLYG on HIV/AIDS who encompasses such goals
by focusing on support for individuals, families, and communities affected by HIV/AIDS. A future HIV Support Center will potentially grow from within this structure. The overall approach encompassed within this project is an initiative to provide support against HIV/AIDS through a holistic approach that targets the disease through cure, awareness and preventions.

At the moment Pakistan has the largest number of youth in its history. According to Census 1998, youth under the age of 29 constitute 70% of the total population. As much as 64.87% of the young population resides in rural areas and 35.13 in urban areas. Youth of a country is the greatest asset of a nation provided that the nation is able to utilize their potential to the optimum level. There is a great responsibility that falls on the shoulders of youth who form 63% of Pakistanis population keeping in view the kind of circumstances faced by Pakistan today. The aim of this project is to prevent youth and make them a tool to fight HIV and AIDS. So that the youth must be aware of their future challenges and know how to tackle those deadly challenges. This program is organized to fight HIV and AIDS especially by engaging youth who possess the potential to cater the entire society. The operating principles for the HIV/AIDS Program are described below. We are collectively committed to finding ways for these principles to guide workplace behaviors, norms, and decisions. Although these principles represent ideals, we believe that they are important to state because they establish standards for conduct and encourage trust in the workplace.

Back ground and current situation

Pakistan is perceived as a high risk low prevalence country concerning the HIV/AIDS virus. According to official government figures, there are 2,622 HIV and 321 AIDS cases in the country. However, according to UNAIDS estimates, HIV/AIDS cases are under-reported in the country and perhaps prevalent among 70,000 to 80,000 people in the country or 0.1 percent of the adult population. Recent studies,8 further indicate that there is a rise in HIV/AIDS and STI cases in the high risk groups with concentrated epidemics beginning in marginalized populations like the Health education including education about HIV and AIDs, modes of their transmission and means of prevention as well as information on the harm of intravenous drug use is not included in the Institution education programs in Pakistan. There is a persistent belief shared by many government officials and society members as well that sex education itself will entice our adolescents into sexual activity. Historically, sexual abstinence, virginity, taboos on premarital sex and sex outside of marriage have been widely encouraged and promoted as traditional cultural norms of Armenian society. This approach in its pure context is of necessity and should be integrated in the programs aimed at adolescents education.

The Writing of a Proposal and dissemination of the results

The development of institutions policies on AIDS education is an important first step in planning and designing this project. This project will provide in-depth understanding of Social, institutional, societal, and cultural environment to be considered while outlining Institutions and workshops policy interventions. Based on the results of this research the recommendations for development of culturally and institutionally acceptable policies and regulations on AIDS education in institutions will be made and presented to the key policy makers and representatives of the related ministries, and other officials. The SLYG members are volunteers and work on different basis therefore we feel that good training in: Peer Education, Theatre, Leadership, Financial Management, Monitoring and Evaluation will help us very much in the projects sustainability, and as a result we shall have well equipped personnel whereby every volunteer shall deliver services on competences approval. This brings commitment and involvement when working with people in the field. In this case, we take peer education and theatre as the tools to disseminate information in all the activities that are conducted by our organization. Further more, there is need to give teams that are involved in sporting activities balls, (football, netball and volley ball) this gives the targeted population the sport loving spirit which in the long run remains in the participants mind and thus makes them strive in search of the like services thereby having a spirit of motivation. Also, the youth that will be trained carpenters and joiners will, in them be instilled the skills and business know how and thus they will impart the knowledge to other youth and help in the social and economical development in our zone.
