Related to country: Nigeria

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The 3rd Africa Conference on Sexual Health and Rights follows on the heels of the 2nd Conference, in Nairobi 2006, and the inaugural conference, in Jo’burg 2004. This year’s conference will hold from February 4th-7th, 2008, at the International Conference Center in Abuja, Nigeria. We’ll focus on the conference theme of “Sexuality, Poverty and Accountability,” and also on the unique challenges facing women and youth on the African Continent. The conference will host a special youth summit for delegates ages 24 and under on February 3rd, 2008, at the International Conference Center.

This blog is an effort by youth, for youth, to catalyze involvement not only with the conference itself, but with sexual health and rights issues on the African continent. Contributors to this blog will keep you posted from inside the conference about what’s being said and done about our sexuality, our health, our education, and our rights. For youth participants at the conference, this blog will provide a forum for discussion of the sessions, speakers, and meetings in which we have a vested interest. For youth who can’t make it, this is our way of keeping you involved. We’ll tell you what’s going on here in Abuja, and you tell us what you think. Send us your questions and comments, and we’ll try to get answers for you. Additionally, the youth delegates at the conference will design a statement on the status of our sexual health and rights, to be presented at the conference closing ceremony. That statement will also be posted here, for your comments, review and use.

Thanks for keeping us abreast of the latest programme that will help built in our capacity in the desire to promote and create awareness about sexual health and right for the younger generation.
But l want to ask, is there any scholarship provision for journalists
most especially young journalists to attend the conference as l am very much interested in attending the programme as that will go a long way in empowering me in my report on the subject of discuss

and equally report the whole scene as objective as possibble having being on the said topic.
thanks from adeola
your sincerely
