Keep the best, change the rest: Participatory tools for working with communities on gender and sexuality

This toolkit is aimed at organisations and community practitioners who are working with groups and communities on HIV, sexual and reproductive health, and rights issues. It contains participatory activities and tools which enable groups of men and women of different ages to explore how gender and sexuality affect their lives and to identify the changes which they wish to make to improve their relationships and sexual health.

It is available to download as a pdf free of charge from the AIDS Alliance website: www.aidsalliance.org/custom_asp/publications/view.asp?publication_id=257
