This project aims to enhance sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and gender equality for women and girls in sub-Saharan Africa and other priority countries. Project activities include: (1) expanding sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services to reach the “marginalized last mile”. This includes communities in hard-to-reach settings; adolescent girls aged 15-19; and women living in extreme poverty and those without adequate access to public SRH services; (2) developing, testing and adopting age-appropriate comprehensive sexuality education approaches in targeted countries; (3) engaging men and boys to address harmful social and gender norms and to raise other’s awareness regarding SRHR and gender equality; and (4) creating and strengthening partnerships with local women’s rights and other groups representing marginalized identities to advance gender equality and SRHR.
