Section7 or AIDS. What are the barriers in your community to openly living with HIV or AIDS? Discuss with your group; ● Is there someone openly living with HIV or AIDS in your community or country or someone who is an advocate for the rights of people living with HIV or AIDS? Write a letter to encourage him or her in this difficult role. Share the letter with others in your club and ask others to sign it. Ask your coach to help you send it to the person. 11. Discuss prejudice with your group. To start, think of these issues: ● What is prejudice? ● Have you ever felt someone was prejudiced against you? Why? Your age, religion, the colour of your skin or other reasons? How did you feel? ● How could you respond if you heard someone being abused or called names just because they are different? Share some of your ideas with your group. Discuss and come up with strategies together to be better prepared to respond to prejudice – directed at yourselves or others. Rehearse together by doing role-plays. 12 Make a poster asking people to support people living with HIV and AIDS and not discriminate. If December 1st is near, make it a World AIDS Day poster. Share your poster with your group. Find a place to display your poster in the sports club or at school. “Respect yourself. Get tested. And be honest.” Roy Simmons, United States, HIV-positive, former New York Giants Player, National Football League 86 Together for HIV and AIDS prevention
Activities Level 3 Suggested Ages: Fifteen and over Section7 This section of the curriculum involves completing 8 out of 15 activities. Review Section 4 What you need to know and Section 5 Sport and HIV with your coach. Do not hesitate to ask your coach for help. 1. Make a flipbook 15 to share with your peers. Include the following topics: ● The human body – both male and female; ● The body fluids of males and females that contain enough HIV to transmit infection from person to person; ● High risk behaviours that can spread the virus from person to person; ● How injecting drugs increase the risk of HIV transmission; ● How sexually transmitted infections increase the risk of HIV transmission; ● The effect of alcohol on behaviour and how it increases the risk of HIV transmission; ● Healthy decisions about sex and drugs to prevent the spread of HIV; ● Effective condom use to protect against the transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections. Share your flipbook with your team and make any changes that will help others better understand the information. Share the information with friends outside your team and your family. 2. Are there sexual health or family planning clinics or agencies in your community that provide information and care related to prevention of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections including HIV? Contact one of these agencies and discuss the services they can provide to young men. With your coach invite a counsellor from a service to speak at one of your sessions and ask him to include the following: ● How condoms prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections; ● Demonstrate how to use a condom properly (see Annex 4); ● An opportunity for the group to ask questions about access to condoms, condom use, sexually transmitted infection prevention, pregnancy and relationships; ● Invite other male members of your family and the community to this meeting. Note for coach: At the end of this session, ask the group for written or verbal feedback on how they feel about using condoms in the future; do they feel they know how to use condoms; do they think their partner will use condoms; can they access condoms? Share the results with the counsellor and plan further strategies to reinforce or increase condom use. 3. Find out where people can receive voluntary counselling and testing (VCT) in your community. You might try a local office of Public Health with this question or a government health 15 A flipbook is a series of pictures with explanations on a particular topic. For example, a picture of high-risk behaviours with labelling of what they are. The flipbook can then be used by the player to illustrate what he is talking about when discussing with friends and family. Together for HIV and AIDS prevention 87
