https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaPVKQzgVWU

In this episode of HIV Prevention in Action, host Cwayita Jemsana sits down with youth leader and advocate Levi Singh to discuss the role of young people in shaping HIV prevention efforts, influencing policy conversations, and creating meaningful change in their communities and beyond.

Drawing on his experience working across regional and international advocacy spaces, Levi reflects on the importance of youth participation in health and development discussions, the challenges young leaders face, and why HIV prevention remains a critical issue for this generation.

The conversation explores:

• Youth leadership and advocacy

• HIV prevention and youth participation

• Influencing policy and decision-making processes

• Representing young people in global spaces

• Bridging the gap between policy and community realities

• Youth voices in health and development

• Building confidence as a young leader

• The future of HIV prevention in Africa

This episode is a reminder that young people are not just beneficiaries of programmes and policies—they are leaders, advocates, and changemakers shaping the future.

HIV Prevention in Action is a youth-centred podcast led by Cwayita Jemsana with support from APHA, creating conversations that connect lived experiences, leadership, and HIV prevention.
