Purpose

This project seeks to enhance the equal enjoyment of the rights of adolescent girls and women (AGW) to be free from gender-based violence (GBV). This includes child, early and forced marriage (CEFM) in Cambodia, Kenya and the Philippines. Project activities include: (1) providing family planning competency-based training to healthcare workers; (2) strengthening capacity of health center staff, private providers and hospital staff in psycho-social counseling, with a focus on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and gender-based violence (GBV); (3) facilitating community actions that address community-specific SRHR needs and causes of GBV; and (4) providing data-driven advocacy training to improve the use of data as evidence to support resilient solutions to adolescent girls and women’s SRHR and GBV needs.
