Catch them Young: Digitize Sex Education for Girls

Need

Most adolescent girls in rural and poor areas have no access to clear, safe, or private information about puberty, their bodies, or how to avoid abuse and early pregnancy. Many schools skip these topics. As a result, girls often turn to unsafe sources or stay silent out of fear or shame.

Long term impact

The girls will grow up with practical knowledge to avoid abuse, protect their health, and make informed choices. The tools are reusable and can be passed on to help younger girls in the community. In time, the project will reduce fear, misinformation, and risk, helping more girls stay in school and avoid early pregnancy, marriages or harm.
