Call for articles

The next issue of Exchange on HIV/AIDS, Sexuality and Gender will focus on innovative behaviour change communication (BCC) strategies and approaches that ensure that young people in secondary schools have the knowledge, skills, self-esteem and support to make appropriate decisions and have access to comprehensive education and services that enable them to act on their decisions, and most importantly, avoid HIV infection.

We are especially interested in receiving reflective papers from programme managers and other staff of local and national level NGOs working in resource-constrained settings on their successful and promising programmes, strategies or approaches. We also welcome contributions by researchers from Africa, Asia and Latin America who are willing to summarize the results of their literature reviews or write short articles on e.g., factors contributing to programmatic success, good practices, new supportive policies or promising approaches. Opinion articles are also welcome. Please note that we prefer articles that move beyond a description of a particular problem or injustice to describe good and promising practice in programming or advocacy work.
