Strikingly similar themes and issues emerge, including concepts of youth, the challenge to traditional cultures, modernization and urbanization revealing a complex and heterogeneous situation for young people and no one HIV/STD prevention strategy. Future prevention efforts must take into account the impact of dominant sexuality frameworks, the onset of sexual activity, the impor- tance of the body for young people, mass media, risk assessment and safer sex. Community responses to AIDS A comparative analysis of the resulting data from 5 countries identified local beliefs about HIV/AIDS, the community and household responses and the inter-relations between the two. Key factors influencing the responses include the existing eco- nomic situation, prevailing relations between men and women in the communities and households, local beliefs in health and health care and local levels of stigmati- zation. Recommendations are made for policy and programme development. Use of the female condom: genders relations and sexual negotiation This third set of studies first collected data in 4 countries on gender relations, sexual communication and negotiation followed by an intervention to strengthen womens capacity in these latter areas. The comparative analysis clearly identified economic dependence on men and gender stereotypes as the two major factors constraining women in their sexual behaviour. The report finishes with specific recommendations. This bare summary of these 3 pioneering sets of studies investigations into the determinants of HIV-related vulnerability cannot convey the extraordinary wealth of data and the richness of experiences and feelings reported by the participants with striking frankness. The volume will be read and re-read by national authorities, programme designers and managers, researchers and intervention specialists. In addition it will be of great interest and value to all those who are interested in the issues surrounding young people and HIV/AIDS, sexual behaviour, communica- tion and negotiation, the improvement and strengthening of responses for the benefit of people living with HIV/AIDS, their carers and their communities, gender roles and the options for women who want to protect themselves against HIV and other STDs as well as pregnancy.
