Isaac,
A CAG is a community advisory group. It is one way to refer to a CAB or it could a separate body that comprises just the target population. For instance you might have an MSM community advisory group and a community advisory board. The differences are very subtle. I just want to bring Mark’s comment from earlier into the mix again. It doesn’t matter what you call it, how the group functions is the most important.
In the course we will emphasize the different ways you can reach out to populations. Sometimes the key is not to target them directly but to try and include allies. For instance, if you are trying to target young men you may want to reach out to local athletic club leaders and parent groups. I think this is a very interesting thread and I’d excited to continue to learn what others are doing!
