Abstract: The project involves testing two successful prevention curricula, namely, Amazing Alternatives, which is a peer-focused alcohol prevention curriculum, and the modified Reducing the Risk curriculum, a skills-based HIV-prevention curriculum. The project, funded by the National Institute of Mental Health, involves combined classroom and media intervention that are designed to be novel and participatory for those adolescents most likely to engage in sexual risk-taking and are affective in altering the number of crucial risk behaviours, including increasing likelihood of continued abstinence among those who have not yet had sex. The study design involves randomising 8 schools in the greater Pietermaritzburg area to an experimental or comparison condition. The control schools receive 4 sessions compared to 14 sessions in the intervention schools.
