This symposium was convened by the IATT on Education and preceded the internal IATT meeting on 3-4 December 2009. GTZ hosted the Symposium on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), in Berlin.

The symposium brought together some 70 experts from around the world to discuss concrete ways to reach, with prevention messages, the most vulnerable young people already engaging in high-risk behaviour, such as multiple partnerships, inter-generational sex, unprotected male-to-male
sex, sex work or injecting drug use.
