At UCEF, we ensure that young people remain empowered and well-informed about their sexual and reproductive health. Our goal is to equip them with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions that impact their health and future positively.
In alignment with this objective, UCEF conducted a four-week engagement with its first cohort of young people, aged 10 to 22 years, meeting every Saturday throughout April 2025 at the Amoako Atta Foundation. The sessions provided comprehensive education on a range of Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) topics, including but not limited to menstrual hygiene, pregnancy and HIV prevention, human rights and responsibilities, healthy relationships, effective communication, and problem-solving skills.
We are pleased to report that these sessions were highly impactful, as evidenced by responses collected through pre- and post-tests, as well as the variety and depth of questions asked—both during open discussions and through confidential channels, particularly by young girls. This initiative provided a valuable opportunity for participants to express their views openly, especially especially on matters that concerns them and issues they are unable to speak out to their parents and guardians about.
