Iswandy Ahmad's blog for the World AIDS Campaign, Y-PEER and Global Youth Coalition on HIV/AIDS e-course on mobilizing toward universal access to HIV treatment, prevention, care and support.
It sounds like you're interested in working with faith communities for your advocacy action plan, Ishwandy. Faith communities are very important in the HIV response. I posted some links under your Photo Voice project that you may find useful.
