Radio 4000 UNICEF ESARO

In this final episode, we take a look at how social behaviour change approaches can support adolescents and young people to find answers to questions about HIV and SRH. We hear about multiple platforms of delivery including MTV Shuga Down South; and how they can be used to reach young people where they are. Programmes are empowering young people with information and skills to make decisions that improve their sexual and reproductive health.

Programmes are more impactful when young women have their say in the decisions that affect them. Leadership is more than speaking up; it's about having influence through being informed and engaged. SRH and HIV programmes need to be intentional in supporting AGYW to lead; and in creating space to harness their leadership. In this episode young women take the lead, as they share and reflect on their leadership journeys.

Imagine a world where modern data tools can be used to increase access for all adolescent girls and young women and ensure better quality of HIV and SRH services. Shocks, life changes and personal choices can all impact on their sexual and reproductive health. We need to find ways to ensure that specific programmes reach those adolescent girls and young women that need them the most. In this episode, we dive deep into best practices for identifying risk and improving access service packages.
