Mid of Priscilla's nieces and nephews playing outside houseLEADIN:Young men and women living with HIV in Uganda have taken to the catwalk to raise awareness about the stigma and discrimination that surrounds people carrying the virus.  But the Young Positive pageant isn't just about physical beauty, it also tests contestants on their general knowledge of HIV. STORYLINE:A Ugandan beauty queen turning heads in a dress made out of recyclable materials. And a young man wearing clothing traditionally worn by the Karamojong - a tribe known for their fierce warriors that shun western-style clothes in northern Uganda. They've travelled to the Ugandan capital, Kampala, from across the country to take part in the Young Positive beauty pageant, a competition for young people living with HIV. By the end of the evening, one young girl will be crowned Miss Young Positive in the annual competition organised to enlighten people about the dangers of discriminating against those with the virus. A similar title for young men is also being contested. Instead of physical beauty, contestants are specifically judged on their general knowledge of HIV matters rather than their performances as fashion models or dancers. Organisers of the HIV-themed pageant, which launched in 2014, say the competition was designed to engage young people in the HIV conversation. \"Many other things have been done in relation to fighting stigma and discrimination. Everyone has come up with dialogue, campaigns and all that. So we thought why not do something that is more catchy for the youth, but then it's spreading out information out there. So we thought probably a beauty pageant would do,\" says Phiona Kituyi, a communications officer at the Uganda Network of Young People Living with HIV and AIDS (UNYPA). \"So initially, you see, when you talk about a beauty pageant everyone goes like 'Oh, they are going to come putting on skimpy dresses. And you know, model around, how does that even cause impact?' But we looked at it in the aspect of, if we go like to different regions, we are able to hold dialogues - one - and meet with stakeholders and be able to have a one-to-one talk. And also disseminate information,\" she adds.Kituyi says one way of curbing AIDS discrimination is for more people living with HIV to open up about their status rather than conceal it.\"With all the contestants that have been coming and all that, I think it has helped them help others, to disclose.. help others to be able to accept themselves the way they are and believe that they are worth something in life. Because there are many young people out there (who) believe they cannot do anything in life, they believe.. they've been told many negative stories. And we are thinking having these ambassadors in communities has been able to help them open up\"About 1.5 million (m) people in Uganda live with HIV, according to the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) . According to UNYPA, 430,000 young people between the ages of 15 and 23 get infected every year. The Executive Director of NAFOPHANU (National Forum Of People Living With HIV/AIDS Networks in Uganda), Stella Kentussi says only half of those infected have access to medical treatment vital for their well being. \"So the current HIV situation in Uganda, we stand at 7.3 percent prevalence rate, with about 1.5 million Ugandans living with HIV. Approximately half of them accessing an intro viral therapy and about 43 percent of those on treatment actually accessing viral load services,\" Kentussi says. Uganda's AIDS rates fell sharply in the 1990s after an aggressive public awareness campaign promoting monogamous sexual relationships and urging medical treatment. But NAFOPHANU says in recent years there has been a disappointing reversal, with the rate of infection among young people rising in both urban and rural areas. \"The change from 6.4 percent in 2005-6 to now 7.3. Part of it stems from the complacence, because it has become normal to live with HIV. Others have even said 'Even if I get (HIV) I still have reality to be able to help me. But also, our prevention messages. We no longer get to hear those messages,\" adds Kenrussi. Twenty-one year old Priscilla Asiimwe takes to the runway in a dress traditionally worn by women of the Baganda, the largest tribe in the country. Competing in this year's pageant was a big decision for her, as many of her friends didn't know that she and her family have been living with HIV. She hopes it will help bring an end to the HIV stigma in Uganda. \"Yeah the competition fights (stigma), reason being it invites both (HIV) negative people and the positive people. So if the negative person comes and sees what the positive people are doing, he will put all the myth he has about HIV, and putting it into consideration, that we are also people like them. So in Uganda, stigma and discrimination,\" says Asiimwe.Representing the central region, Asiimwe came to the capital from her parent's village in the west of Uganda to go to university. She shares a small, one bedroom house with her three sisters, her brother-in-law, her brother and three nieces and nephews. Asiimwe says the Young Positive pageant has changed her life.\"I said personally it has changed, because now I can stand in public and speak. I'm not worried any more of my status 'cause it's like that congregation helped me disclose it more to those who didn't know, yeah. And now I believe in myself.\"Asiimwe struggled when she found out she had HIV at the age of 16. She'd been taking medication for the condition since she was born.\"At first I had the self-stigma in me. So I couldn't do anything. Fetching water, no. Me, my work was just.. I was in self-denial. I was like 'no, I have no hope'. But then after finding out that even my sisters are the same and they are even older than me, I'm like 'ok, I will also reach their age'. And I started gaining courage. But all that was through counselling. The counsellors at the centres, they give you some counselling. Even my sisters said 'no, you can make it. We are all alive\". My mum says 'you see, I gave birth to you, but up to now I'm still alive. That means you'll also give birth to children'.\"She says her three sisters, who are also HIV positive, have given her hope for the future. The four women have to take their medication daily, once in the morning and once in the evening. It can sometimes prove a challenge, because they can only take the drugs on a full stomach and often there is no money to buy food. Asiimwe's eldest sister, Stella Kayima, hopes that the beauty pageant will change the family's fortune. \"I think it's an opportunity. Cause what I know is that when someone comes out and speaks about himself, due to different attitudes you find that there may be some people who can help you out with your life. According to their life experience you've tried to share with them. Yes, so I see it as an opportunity to our family.\"While Asiimwe didn't win the competition, she says the experience has helped her greatly.  Eighteen year old Tryphena Natukunda was crowned Miss Young Positive 2016. ====Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: info@aparchive.com.
