A couple of interesting summaries from id21: young people and sexual health in Nicaragua and community participation and sexual health in South Africa. The first article has no real surprises in it – just a nice overview of some classic adolescent health issues. The second has an unexpected finding – people participating in voluntary saving and social clubs were more likely to have casual, unsafe sex, to consume alcohol and to be HIV positive.

Medecins Sans Frontieres continues to impress me, this time by participating in the Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative.
