Adolescent and Youth Reproductive Health and Rights
Young people (10-24 years) in Uganda face many sexual reproductive health and rights (SRHR) challenges stemming from early, unprotected and forced sexual activity. An underlying factor is limited access to youth-friendly SRHR information and services, which impacts young people’s ability to make informed and healthy life choices. Especially in many rural areas of Uganda including Kyotera and Rakai where we work, the uptake of quality adolescent SRHR services remains low. A strategic intervention of Dreams of the Tropical Youth Uganda is the integrated SRHR community and school outreaches in rural Uganda.
