decrease the unawareness to the lowest possible level. |
|
Let people understand the seriousness of the
situation. |
|
Motivate students and community members, enable

This model tells individuals will take action to
protect themselves if they perceive themselves to susceptible to the
condition or problem, and if they believe it will has potentially serious
consequences: the perceived threat. They would benefit if they minimize the
risk. The benefits of action to reduce risk will outweigh potential costs
and barrios. Teach them the confidence of they can avoid it by reducing the
risk. (Nutshell) |

|
Media coverage is the best way of getting policy
maker’s and general public’s attention. Very effective way of letting
people knows the serious drug use and HIV crisis among young people. Media can be applied to impact on the
community and on society by stimulating community action and promoting
changes to the physical and other environments. |
|
|
|
|
Decrease drug use, which is the main route of
HIV. Educate abstinence and safe sex, Decease new HIV cases, decrease HIV
prevalence. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Carry out anonymous survey among the students
and get their level of understanding, and opinions about drug use and
sexual behavior and condom use. Calculate prevalence .Use this evaluation
to guide our intervention. |
|
Spend 2 hours in every two weeks with students
for the student education. |
