PROJECT PROPOSAL

WORLD AIDS DAY CELEBRATION AND AWARENESS

ON HIV/STI
December 1, 2016
I. BACKGROUND/RATIONALE:

The purpose of this project will develop consciousness of safer sex practices
and avoid multiple sexual partners and social awareness about sexually transmitted
infection (STI), HIV/AIDS among vulnerable group, LGBT group, Government
employees including Department of Education and PNP.

The HIV/AIDS epidemic is less known and concerned by the people. The
form of epidemic may be amazing and acute what we are thinking now. San Vicente
has zero reported case of HIV but the most alarming is the increasing cases of HIV in
surrounding municipalities. The much extensive spread of the virus could be only
known and assessed through some kind of initiatives and interventions to highlight the
endemic presence in Ilocos Sur.

Enactment of the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of

2012 (Republic Act No. 10354), formally known as the Reproductive Health
Law or RH Law, is a law in the Philippines, which guarantees universal access to
methods of contraception, fertility control, sexual education, and maternal care which
aims to improve the health and well-being of young people by providing adolescents
and young people with appropriate information, life skills, and services that will
enable them to cope with their full development into adulthood.
