TASK TEAM

The Asia Pacific Inter-Agency Task Team on Young Key Populations (IATT on YKPs) was established in 2009 to promote coordinated support from UN agencies and civil society partners to meet the HIV prevention, treatment, care and support needs of young key populations, including young men who have sex with men, young transgender people, young people who use drugs, young people living with HIV, young sex workers and young people living with HIV... The IATT on YKPs implements capacity building trainings for YKP-led organizations to enable them to meaningfully contribute to national and regional HIV responses, influence policies and programmes and advocate for the improvement of YKP health and well-being. The IATT on YKPs has also been focusing on the capacity development of civil society organisations and UN agencies, working to support YKPs in the areas of research, policy, programming and service provision, enhancing mutual learning and facilitating networking.
