<p>In South Africa there is still a substantial amount of prejudice towards people living with Aids (PLA). Initially, Aids was seen as a &lsquo / gay&rsquo / disease, then a &lsquo / black&rsquo / disease. People thus tended to avoid high-risk groups rather than high-risk behaviour, and denied their own vulnerability by displacing the disease to an &lsquo / other&rsquo / who did not belong to &lsquo / their&rsquo / group. This study focuses on factors that influence and motivate adolescents&rsquo / behavior towards HIV/AIDS at Beauvallon High School in Valhalla Park / an impoverished, peri-urban and previously coloured only community.</p>
