This week, as we celebrate International Youth Day, we highlight three young women who are fighting for a better, greener world and discover how youth-friendly sexual and reproductive health services are empowering young mothers in Thailand. In Bangladesh, women and girls are finding ways to connect to services and health care amid rising sea levels and floodwaters, while in Uganda, an initiative to create backpacks with a solar-powered torch is helping girls study when the lights go out. Thanks for reading.
