FHI 360’s HIV/AIDS Work in Action

FHI 360’s HIV/AIDS Work in Action

Adolescents hold up signs while others watch. The signs say Stop, Think, and Go and are meant to teach critical thinking skills. The children are participating in Life Skills Education (LSE) activities that are conducted by the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA) in Delhi, India. The LSE toolkit was developed by FHI 360's IMPACT Project with funding from USAID.

For the last 30 years, FHI 360 has been committed to addressing the impact of HIV/AIDS in all corners of the world through solid research and innovative programs. View more images of FHI 360 in action on our Facebook page.
