2. Men and boys are disadvantaged by simplistic
gender stereotyping
In RSA 70% of men see themselves (& the
evidence supports them) as ‘good guys’
(various research reports including MRC and
Sonke Gender Justice)
Policy and media emphasise the 30%
Gender programmes emphasise the 30%
We focus on ‘growing’ the 70
growing’ 70%

SAHARA, 3rd December, 2009
3. There is now a global consensus (including
the NSP) that we must engage boys and men
in HIV/AIDs related issues such as gender
relations, treatment and care etc.
Growing the 70% involves –
Supporting some existing behaviours
Encouraging new behaviours
Nurturing changed behaviours
To do that we need to give the 70% a platform
for change

SAHARA, 3rd December, 2009
4. Male-positive and sex-positive programmes
that encourage discussion about the 70/30
A structured, safe space to explore the
challenges of growing up male in RSA today
Safe places to discuss the behaviours of girls
and young women
Focus on different masculinities, sex and
relationships, rights as well as responsibilities
Time for the boys to reflect and try out the
theory
With support from their communities

3rd December, 2009
5. 6 x 3 hr sessions over about 4 weeks;
Iterative learning (HIV, gender based violence
and more);
Using materials designed just for boys and
young men
The programme needs skilled facilitation and
as much community support as possible

3rd December, 2009
6. Sex and Relationship Education was re-
named Boys 2 Men in Limpopo
“ These topics (HIV / gender based violence /
power relations) are taboo and remain highly
guarded secrets within our communities”
“Boys 2 Men gave us the opportunity to begin
to talk about these issues and we welcomed
the opportunity”
The boys are now driving the programme
through their communities through their
informal’
‘informal’ networks

SAHARA, 3rd December, 2009
7. The Boys have knowledge that is often
contradictory
Many of their lives are very tough
They want decent futures
They respond with enthusiasm and humour,
have contributed to programme design &
have requested more programmes
Adults in their communities welcome the
programme and have asked for more of them

3rd December, 2009
8. Demand for this rights based programme is
increasing
To achieve this significant numbers of high
quality facilitators are required
Funding is difficult to access
Girls are demanding a parallel programme
As a niche, community outreach institute at
UL we have had to re-define our role (from
implementer facilitator) in order to take
this programme to scale
Development, Facilitation and Training Institute –
SAHARA, 3rd December, 2009
9. Improvement of the programme design
Facilitator training
Designing rigorous M&E
Quality control through SAQA
Supporting institutions to implement the
programme
We – as an institute - will only implement
locally where we have the capacity
Development, Facilitation and Training
Institute – SAHARA, 3rd December, 2009
10. Developing a SAQA accredited training
programme for Facilitators
Substantially increasing the number of
facilitators able to deliver the Boys 2 Men
Programme
The first cohort (of 25) will complete the
course at the end of March 2010, and the
Limpopo Province Regional Training Centre in
collaboration with DevFTI, plans to run 3
further courses next year
