When girls are informed, they can make informed choices. When their voices are heard, communities become stronger. When their rights are protected, everyone benefits.
Educate girls. Empower girls. Protect girls.

Every girl deserves access to accurate information, quality healthcare and the freedom to make informed decisions about her future. #SRHRAdvocacy#GirlsTakeAction
A child's silence is never consent. Their fear is never weakness. Their voice deserves to be heard. Their future deserves to be protected. Learn more on how we are strengthening collective efforts towards #PathToJustice#EndChildhoodSexualViolence

Youth Chaperon Uganda through the #ENLIGHTEENS programs significantly contributes to closing the SRHR information gap among young people, fostering a culture of informed choices, self-advocacy, and healthy relationships through school and community outreaches. #SRHR4All
Creating healthier communities starts with making knowledge, dignity and safe spaces accessible to everyone.
Frank shares how @YCBNetwork is contributing to WASH and SRHR advocacy through different community led initiatives.
Beyond these initiatives, YCBN is also engaging men and boys as champions for SRHR, encouraging them to challenge harmful stigma, support open conversations and contribute to safer and more inclusive communities.
When communities work together, WASH and SRHR become more than programs. They become shared responsibilities.
Through advocacy, education, research and meaningful participation, we can create environments where young people are informed, supported and empowered to thrive.

The holidays are here and they are a good time to spend more time with our children and understand what they are going through.
Dear parents, take time to listen to your children, talk to them kindly, correct them without hurting them and make them feel loved and safe.
This holiday, we encourage you to spend more time talking, playing, listening and learning with your children.
Small moments like these can make a big difference in their lives.

When girls are informed, supported and empowered, they are better able to make decisions about their health, education and future. #SRHRAdvocacy#GirlsTakeAction
It’s great to see men taking the lead in empowering girls and enabling them to realize their full potential:
Thank you @YCBNetwork for walking the talk and for being active members of @WezeshaGirls
Together we are making a lasting difference: @girlrising#SRHRAdvocacy #GirlsTakeAction @shesthefirst
Real change starts when young people are trusted to lead. @inspireyouthdev creates space for girls to understand their rights,make informed choices and turn their voices into actions to determine their future.

Advocacy becomes stronger when it is rooted in lived experiences.
Listening to young people helps us understand the barriers behind the statistics and identify solutions that reflect their realities. Their voices should be heard in the spaces where decisions about their lives are made. #GirlsTakeAction
Imagine a girl experiencing her period at school without sanitary materials, information or someone she can turn to. For many girls, this is more than a moment of discomfort. It can affect her confidence, participation, dignity and learning. #SRHRAdvocacy must address these realities.
#GirlsTakeAction
Ending stigma starts with conversation. Let’s create spaces where young people can talk about sexual and reproductive health responsibly, access reliable information and seek help without being judged. #SRHRAdvocacy#GirlsTakeAction
Sometimes, “normal” is simply a name we give to what we have never questioned. #SRHRAdvocacy asks us to pause, listen and challenge practices that limit girls’ choices. Early marriage should never be a girl’s expected destination. Her dreams deserve room to grow.
When girls have accurate SRHR information, they gain more than knowledge they gain the confidence to make informed decisions, challenge harmful norms and advocate for change. Knowledge becomes power when girls are empowered to use it.
#SRHRAdvocacy#GirlsTakeAction@girlrising
Sometimes, action starts with one conversation. A young person asks a question about their body, menstruation, relationships or health and instead of shame or silence, they receive accurate information and guidance.
Creating these safe spaces is an important part of SRHR advocacy. #SRHRAdvocacy
