Summary:

Sanaa Art Promotions uses art, both visual and performing, to promote

social development within East African communities. The Participatory

Interactive Media Model is an awareness and behavioural change

communication strategy using visual, performing arts and debates

through mass and alternative media to bring about positive changes in

HIV/AIDS related knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, misconceptions,

intentions, risk perception and self-efficacy among youth in Program

areas. The crux of innovation in the Participatory Interactive Media

Model is the participation of targeted youth in identifying their own

knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, misconceptions, intentions, risk

perception and developing a consensus of behavioural change options

through interactive and multimedia communication strategy.

Goal: To reduce and prevent the transmission of HIV/AIDS in Kenya.

Target Groups/Beneficiaries:

Over eight million youth from four provinces in Kenya, constituting 63

per cent of the population in the target area and 28 per cent of

Kenya's total population.

Programme Objectives:

* To develop and implement an effective Participatory Interactive

Media Model in schools in Nairobi, Central, Eastern and Coast Province

* To implement participatory mural outreach activities in

communities adjacent to Program schools in Nairobi, Central, Eastern

and Coast Province

Programme Activities:

The Program will sensitise and train approximately 9,375 peer

educators on Participatory Interactive Media Model methodology to work

with teachers and in- and out-of-school youth. The peer educators and

visual and performing artists from Sanaa Art Promotions will mobilise

the targeted youth to conceptualise, design, produce and disseminate

participatory and competitive behavioural change intervention messages

through thousands of creative skits, essays, songs, dances, acting,

role play, debates, artworks, radio listening, comic strips and other

information, education and communication materials.

Intended Programme Results:

At the end of the Program, the positive behaviour change messages

discussed and chosen by the target youth will be left on murals,

picture codes, posters, book page markers and calendars in schools and

community for sustainability and prolongation.

* National AIDS Control Council (NACC)
