Project manager|Founder of Girls Helping Girls Organization-equipping young girls to be healthy responsible adults.
Early and unintended pregnancies have a direct impact on the future of girls and young women, as especially in South Sudan,maternity often implies dropping out of the educational system. The fight against child pregnancies is complex and multifaceted as it is the result of various contextual factors. However, we are convinced that tailored sex education and the provision of contraceptives helps to diminish the number of unintended pregnancies significantly. Now is the time to ensure that every girl lives a life free from stigma with unhindered access to quality comprehensive sexuality education, to sexual and reproductive health rights and services and with meaningful opportunities to lead a productive life.
