| dc.description.abstract | The HIV and AIDS pandemic has torn the continent of Africa apart, in the context of a
consistently deterriorating situation occasioned by conflict, poverty, bad governance and
negatIve economic growth. In Kenya, the pandemic was declared a national disaster in
2000, since then, various efforts have been put in place to mitigate the myriad negative
effects that it has on different spheres of the society. In a situation where the cure for
AIDS has remained elusive, preventive efforts to further check the spread of HIV/AIDS
have become the method of choice for stakeholders working in this particular field.
Young people comprise almost 60 percent of the total population in Kenya and have
correctly been described as the window of hope in the fight against the HIV/AIDS
pandemic.
Understanding the communication process among and between the young people is
therefore crucial in order to design effective preventive strategies | en |
