We call upon member states to guarantee the right to CSE as access to CSE remains a challenge for many young people, especially women and girls in their diversities, in the Asia-Pacific region. @ARROW_Women #CSE4ALL #SDGs #GlobalGoals

In Chandranagar, even carrying a school bag, putting on polished shoes, and an ironed uniform is a dream. I felt sad that there were children who had never seen colour pencils before the activity. I just published Under the Open Skies of Sarlahi…… https://t.co/Lg8LZXZURz

Ensure that the most marginalized groups have access to important services, including SRHR and CSE. Ensure that strong evidence bases that fill research gaps on SRHR and CSE delivery are used to inform decisions, policies, and programmes on #UHC. @ARROW_Women #CSE4All #SDG2030

[Rita Puri @ritatweets_np]

Attended National Conference on ICPD, the event reviewed Nepal's ICPD targets & discussed achievements on development-related policies, SRHR and SDGs. It also developed a coherent strategy & action plan to navigate the country's policy priorities and emergency demographic shifts.

[Rita Puri @ritatweets_np]

Attended National Consultation with Youth on ICPD commitments, where we discussed the ICPD30+ process, priorities and way forward. As ICPD30 youth, it's great to learn about the progress, challenges, and gaps to be addressed to meet Nepal's commitments. #ICPD30 #youthday

[Rita Puri @ritatweets_np]

Stigma-free and accurate SRHR information, including contraception and abortion, should be accessible to young people so they can make informed decisions about their bodies.
#CSE4ALL #WD2023

[Rita Puri @ritatweets_np]

The gendering of Technology in this digital age should be challenged by
inculcating the importance of design thinking and innovation among girls. CSE should be incorporated in schools to break the gender division of work and promote gender equality. #HLPF2023 #CSE4ALL #SDGs

[ARROW @ARROW_Women]

In Nepal, young people are yet unaware of CSE and far away from digital information which led to wrong decision-making along with life-long consequences. Digital learning opportunities need to be improved, especially for people who have less access. @ARROW_Women

[Rita Puri @ritatweets_np]

School curricula must be re-designed to provide learners with digital competencies, and knowledge of sustainable development - including Comprehensive Sexuality Education.
@ARROW_Women
#CSE4ALL #CPD56

[Rita Puri @ritatweets_np]

CSE should be incorporated into school curricula and be funded and should address comprehensive topics in a more open, accessible manner mainly to prevent STI or early pregnancy using accessible innovative technology.
