SIMBA CIRCLE
The brother program to Girls as Partners (GAP), Remembering the Boy Child (RBC), focuses on puberty and adolescence in boys and HIV/AIDS prevention. The sessions aim to create a sense of the male self and his place in society. Facilitators act as big brothers and allow for open discussion, encouraging them to respect women, act responsibly and with awareness.
