Capacity Building

Ultimate prevention of teenage pregnancy is achievable when the adolescent girls are able to indulge in activities that keep them away from possibility of having sex and eventually pregnancy. We hereby look to inform the adolescent girls of various ways they can spend their time in productive manner, help them learn from those who have had the teenage pregnancy challenge as their mentors to avoid the same.
In our capacity building, we do not only stop with the adolescent girls but include adolescent boys and the community at large to inform them of the challenges teenage mothers face and the risk that may befall their children. It is our belief that engagement of the community elders will void communities of cultural activities that risk the adolescent girls. On the other hand, engaging adolescent boys promises sustainability in preventing teenage pregnancy.

 

This contributes to achievement of SDG 3. Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for the teenagers and the children, 4. Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote learning opportunities for adolescent girls, 5. Achieve gender equality among adolescent and empower teenage mothers.
