According to this 17-page report there is growing recognition that young people are the key to stopping the spread of AIDS, and this is reflected in the number of global indicators that relate to them. This report seeks to help advocate, plan, monitor and evaluate national policies and programmes for HIV prevention among young people. It is intended to complement the indicators included in National AIDS Programmes: a Guide to Monitoring and Evaluation, by refining those indicators already defined, and by proposing new indicators in relatively early phases of development and use.

This guide seeks to help place HIV/AIDS within the broader context of efforts to improve young people’s sexual and reproductive health and promote adolescent health and development. the guide also seeks to make "a conscious effort to expand the measurement lens from a narrow focus on individual behaviours to the determinants of these behaviours."
