VCT: As a member of the Network of Health Actors (NETHA) we have worked with UNICEF to organized free VCT (HIV screening) for youths in some rural communities.
Production of IEC materials: We develop and distribute IEC materials on HIV/AIDS awareness for youths. The materials are distributed free in various communities and some schools.

ChangeMaker’s Project: Engaging young men in the fight against gender-based violence and HIV/AIDS
The project engaged young men aged 18-30 in the fight against HIV/AIDS and empower them to challenge cultural traditions/beliefs and practices that surround male toxic sexuality by providing them with information and skills to tackle GBV and take equal responsibility for behaviours that compromise their own health as well as the health of others. The project was sponsored by Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) in partnership with Voluntary Services Overseas (VSO).
The Change Maker’s Project was a 2-year project that ran in the North West and the South West Regions of Cameroon. A Global Healthcare Public Foundation was another partner of the project
