Gen Y - Do You YEAH? Young people and HIV/AIDS - an opportunity in their lifetime. To mark World AIDS Day, 1st of December 2006, YEAH launched the "Do You YEAH?" campaign. The "Do You YEAH?" campaign aims to reach young people in their teens. We Want to know if the Y Generation says YEAH. We hope that young people will come to understand the meaning and the messages of YEAH and will ask their friends 'Do You YEAH?' and that more and more young people will respond " I YEAH". (I believe in Youth Empowerment against HIV/AIDS). We are calling people to show public support and to help us ask the question " Do You YEAH?". "Now more than ever, comprehensive sexual education in Victorian secondary schools is extremely important. Secondary school teachers need appropriate resources and skills to deliver this education,"AMA Victoria President Mark Vale has said. Call or Email YEAH to receive"Do You YEAH?" Stickers.
