The Global Youth Coalition on HIV/AIDS (www.GYCA.org) is seeking a new Regional Focal Point for the Eastern Europe and Central Asia region for a term from July 2012 to December 2013.
GYCA is a program of the Public Health Institute (PHI). GYCA is a youth-led network of more than 6,500 young leaders and adult allies working on youth and HIV/AIDS in over 170 countries worldwide. Its North Secretariat is based in New York, and its South Secretariat is based in Accra, Ghana. GYCA recognizes the potential of young leaders as the best force to address HIV and AIDS in their own communities, and empowers them with the knowledge, skills, resources and opportunities they need to scale up their initiatives. Three main areas of focus guide GYCA’s work: networking and sharing of best practices; technical assistance and capacity building; and political advocacy.
GYCA's campaigns, trainings and activities are implemented by a team of 12 Regional Focal Points who are elected by GYCA's membership. They are called upon to represent youth at UN events, policy roundtables, international trainings and conferences, and at the grassroots level.
This is a call to all young people interested in taking a leadership role with GYCA by applying to be a GYCA RFP. The principle function of the RFPs is to be pro-active in effectively engaging all GYCA members and implementing GYCA projects. The RFP will become part of GYCA’s decision making team and will be expected to contribute to the decision-making process. RFPs will have a voice in what activities GYCA undertakes and how. This position is voluntary; however GYCA staff are fundraising for RFP stipends. Applicants must be ages 18-26 and must speak English (in order to converse with other RFPs, staff and partners).
Please see the attached application for more information. Applications should be sent to rfp@gyca.org by June 22nd, 2012.
