Andrea Vasquez Rodriguez, 2007 Fellow


Biography:
I'm about to graduate from my Master's in Communication next December. My emphasis is sexual and reproductive health in adolescents and how to reach effectively those population thought communication campaigns. I have worked for NGOs and an agency of United Nations in the prevention of HIV/AIDS in youth. I'm interested in how communication can be a part of public politics in my country, especially, the ones that try to benefit adolescents.

Research Focus:
My current research interests focus on the interrelationship gender representations and the risk of getting infected with HIV in very well informed young populations.
