"Get Connected" section
October 2, 2006 - 05:22 PM

I really think that the section "Get Connected" will be one of the most useful parts of the Guide for young people who want to take action on HIV/AIDS.

Often times, sayings like "networking" and "let's do lunch" are associated with people in business suits at cocktail parties - and I think it's important to remember that networking is a REALLY useful tool for young people, adults, business-people... ANYONE!

All it means is that people who are interested in similar things should put their heads together, help each other out, pool their resources, collaborate, etc...

The "Get Connected" section of the Guide emphasizes the importance of networking as a tool, and clearly explains the necessry terms - making the whole idea of networking, collaborating and facillitating connections more accessible to young people. I really appreciated that! What do other people think?

i think its a great the "Get Connected" section is a good idea. a lot of people really want to do things themself without getting to get other people's idea. networking really makes things easy and faster. its as easy as meeting george bush and discussing on issues. networking makes the world smaller and i think youth should cultivate the habit of networking. all of this as been made easy through "Get Connected'. its really nice.

I am very happy to see people getting involved. We need the youth to get involved since HIV/AIDS affects them the most. I wish there were more youth wanting to get involved or even adults. This issue is not being taken seriously, but maybe with the help worldwide and this website, that can all change! smile
