Dear all

GNP+ would like to invite young people living with HIV to apply to attend a 
meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in November 2011.

The meeting will be the final part of a consultative process through which we 
are developing a Leadership Programme for young people living with HIV, as a 
part of the Y+ Programme. The first part of the consultative process begins 
with e-consultations and focus group discussions taking place in September and 
October - (more information will be coming about these consultations in the 
next few days).

The Y+ Leadership Programme will support young people living with HIV to 
acquire the skills and experience required to take on leadership roles within 
the positive community and throughout the HIV response, at the community, 
national, regional and global levels. Attached you will find a concept note for 
the development of the leadership programme for further information.

We are looking for a small number of individuals to attend the consultative 
meeting in November (1-2) 2011, in Amsterdam, with a number of other YPLHIV and 
established leaders and key stakeholders. The purpose of the meeting is to get 
a fuller understanding of the leadership capacity needs of YPLHIV and what 
enablers and challenges exist to enhance this capacity. This will inform the 
final stage of the programme design process.

Eligibility

You are eligible to apply if:

 *   You are under the age of 30 and openly living with HIV.
 *   You are able to speak fluent English, as the meeting will be conducted in 
English.
 *   You are connected to a community, national, regional or global network of 
people living with HIV or young people living with HIV.
 *   You have experience at the community, national, regional or global level 
in the HIV response.
 *   You have some experience of other leadership support programmes.


We are particularly encouraging applications from young women living with HIV.

To apply:
Please send your CV (Resume) and a statement of interest, explaining why you 
would be a suitable participant in this meeting (no more than 750 words). Also 
include a reference letter from a colleague or mentor who can support your 
application.

Please send these documents in an email with your full name and contact details 
to agarner@xxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:agarner@xxxxxxxxxxx> before CoB (GMT+1) Wednesday 
7th September. We will inform all applicants by Tuesday 13th September if your 
application was successful.

We look forward to receiving your applications.

Warmly

Adam Garner
