YouthNet End of Program Report (PDF, 594 KB)
The End of Program report for YouthNet (2001-2006) focuses on the program's top ten results, with recommendations and resources for taking action. This 64-page report includes 37 recommendations, organized by the ten major results, along with a list of YouthNet country activities, a summary of research studies, and an annotated summary of YouthNet publications.
Peer Education Toolkit
The Peer Education Toolkit is a group of five resources designed to help program managers and master trainers of peer educators. The toolkit is based on research and evidence from the field as well as local examples and experiences. They are designed to be adapted locally as needed.
Faith-Based Family Life Education Curricula
These curricula include two designed to work with adults with a participant handbook, one for a Christian audience and one for a Muslim one. In addition, a third tool is for working with youth directly, from a Christian perspective. The manuals encourage open discussion about sexuality, reproductive health, and HIV in the context of faith communities. They are not designed to promote religion.
Community Involvement Resources
The community involvement resources consist of four documents produced in partnership with CARE. They offer guidance for conducting participatory assessments, an annotated guide to technical resources, a report of a technical consultation on community involvement, and a literature review.

FOCUS on Young Adults
FOCUS on Young Adults, a USAID-supported project that ended in 2001, assisted educational and health service delivery organizations in 30 countries to develop, monitor, and evaluate programs to improve the reproductive health of young adults. FOCUS published many documents detailing best practices on adolescent reproductive health. YouthNet, which began work in 2002, continues to build on the research produced by the FOCUS program.
