For two years schools and educational institutions in πΊπ¬ remained closed due to COVID 19. High rates of GBV and tennage pregnancies were reported. Keeping girls in school reduces their chances of contracting #HIV by 50%. It's time for @EducPlus2025
Every adolescent girl and young woman completing secondary school, safe, strong and empowered. Let us embrace @EducPlus2025.

This is key for legal practitioners and human rights defenders in the provision of legal aid and support to facilitate access to justice and realization of human rights for people living with #HIV@UNAIDS is happy to be part of this initiative.

If our destiny only depended on people who like us, who believe in us, who think weβre talented, weβd get stuck. The good news is they donβt control your destiny. The Most-High God is ordering your steps. Heβs working out His plan for your life.
The longer young people stay in school and complete, the less chances of registering tennage pregnancies, early marriages, HIV infections and sexual related abuses. Happy #YouthDay2022
