The materials presented in this document provide information and guidance to organizations and individuals who wish to explore or use dialogue as a strategy in HIV/AIDS prevention programming.
Although it is not the first guide to discuss methods for improved communications in AIDS, health promotion and development, it is the first documented effort to develop and integrate dialogue as a specific technical strategy and integral component of HIV/AIDS prevention.
This resource package's unique contribution is its intention to reach a new and diverse audience, introducing gender as an integral component of effective dialogue.
Finally, the guide provides guidelines for planning, implementing, monitoring and evaluating the strategy.
