📚 CSE = more than health. It equips young people with life skills, career guidance & protection from GBV & exploitation.
🇿🇼 Zimbabwe has one of the best CSE policies in ESA—but enforcement & access for out-of-school youth remain key gaps.

#AIDS2024
Key take away from the regional SRHR Fund side event on the status quo of age of consent & SRHR:
✅Any adolescent & young person who can give informed consent for specific services should not require the consent of a third party to access the service.
#Consent2access#RHNK2024
Youth Accountability Champions highlights the need to address the key drivers of adolescent motherhood, such as limited access to SRHR services and education. These lead to many being socially excluded and judged and, hence, strain their relationships.
