13. Problems Encountered:

• Some villagers were busy with their small business, farm works and other social works, thus they had no time to participate in the awareness activities on HIV/AIDS, SIT and Human Trafficking organized by the program. As the solution, the program increased face to face talks activities to ensure that they received also the information on HIV/AIDS, STI and Human Trafficking.

• Some Peer Educators have limited capacity, so they faced some difficulties in knowledge transfer on HIV/AIDS, STI and Human Trafficking to local communities. As the solution, the program provided additional capacity building to them and continue providing technical support to them in all awareness activities in the communities organized by them.

14. Lesson Learnt • The program should mainstream a topic on drug

use in to HIV prevention program.• The program should encourage the monks to get

involved in more awareness dissemination to local communities.

• The program should add more face to face talks activities to villagers (venders) living in/near the market areas because these peoples are so busy with their livelihood, thus they have no time to participate in the program.
