I would like to share this experience. As a Global Ambassador to The Well Project, one of the activities I love doing is educating young adolescent people on HIV/AIDS and sexual reproductive health education at different community-levels, particularly schools. This has helped me to see that there are lots of gaps in HIV information for this groups of persons. In one of the schools I visited, a child shared an experience about one of her friend's cousins in the far northern part of Nigeria. It is so sad and frustrating to see or hear some of these things, but they are so true.
