OIL's Peer Education Programme Targets two main groups: School based youth and Out of School Youth. These are delivered by highly motivated and passionate staff. We believe that the personal growth which we wish to see in the peer educators' lives is often hindered by interpersonal problems or issues that can be effectively addressed through an adolescent friendly counselling service.

We see a generation of Africans uplifting their communities and imparting vision and purpose to future generations to do the same.

Youth in sub-Saharan Africa face a potentially devastating future. Not only are they facing the multi-faceted impact of HIV and Aids, but a myriad of social and economic challenges loom. South Africa is approaching a crossroads in how it chooses to respond to the management of one of its greatest resources: its young people. If we are to turn the tide on HIV/Aids and other social problems, the time to act is now.

OIL wants young people to take Ownership of their lives, to own who they are, to Invest in their lives and to Live their lives to the maximum. OIL equips teenage leaders to influence their friends to actively make choices that will give them the freedom to grow to become all that they can be and more.
