WomenDeliver - Let’s get loud!: Young people’s innovative approaches to SRHR advocacy
Date: 18-07-2023Time: 2:15 - 3:30 pm (local time)Location: WomenDeliver virtual platformOrganised by Masarouna.
The MENA region has one of the highest populations of young people in the world. Every day, young people must navigate challenges to access basic needs and services, including SRHR information and services. Harmful social norms, policies, and legislation often limit their ability to claim their SRHR. Additionally, shrinking civic spaces, both online and offline, make it increasingly difficult for young people to advocate for their rights. In such a difficult context, how do young people and CSOs work on SRHR?
In our session, young people will present and discuss how the innovative ways they find and share SRHR information and advocate for SRHR. They will give examples of how they use peer learning, youth participatory research, safe online spaces, and arts and culture for SRHR advocacy. They will demonstrate how they use these tactics to navigate the difficult context and build a movement. Panelists will share replicable and effective approaches, tools, and methods used across MENA in an interactive virtual panel session.
