New website with COVID-19 related resources for young key populations and young poeple living with HIV in Asia and the Pacific

27 August 2020

The Interagency Task Team on Young Key Populations (IATT on YKPs) in Asia and the Pacific, with support from Youth LEAD, UNAIDS, UNICEF and UNDP, has  launched its new website

The aim of the website is to gather and bring together available information and guidance on COVID-19 focusing on young key populations (YKPs) and young people living with HIV (PLHIV) from Asia and the Pacific. The platform will serve as an online resource to document and communicate on the challenges YKPs face due to COVID-19 as well as their approaches in identifying gaps and solutions in their response to COVID-19.

Materials on the website include a wide range of resources for YKPs, such as personal stories, guidance on what young people can do to look after themselves and their communities during COVID-19 as well as a collection of best practices and strategic information on young key populations during COVID-19 that can be used for evidence-informed programming.
