Accra

Ghana

Dream description

An Africa where unintended, unplanned and unwanted pregnancies are reduced drastically! An Africa where peers can positively influence and shape behavior through information sharing and counselling on sexual and reproductive health and rights issues. To help them understand their bodies- physical and emotional changes as they grow as well as how to take great care of themselves.

Action plan

Train and groom a crop of dedicated peer educators to engage young people on and offline, working closely with interested partners across Ghana and other parts of Africa to reach many people in different languages! Through online and offline activities we will create Africa's biggest platform to discuss reproductive health issues and challenges freely without fear of being judged and getting information on sexuality to make informed choices! This means - Reduction of risky behavior among youth, well armed and informed youth on how to deal with negative peer influence and the ability to negotiate safer sex etc... Access to Information & Services! West Africa will be the starting point! Let's make this happen! Thank you!
