Project activities include: (1) providing technical assistance to Midwifery Education Centers of Excellence to deliver quality SRHR education services; (2) developing training materials on comprehensive sexuality education for junior high school and health workers; (3) conducting community mobilization and dialogue to disseminate information on preventing child marriage and positive social norms; (4) delivering training on gender equality and life skills for adolescent girls and boys; and (5) providing technical assistance to the national government to strengthen the quality of GBV services. Direct project beneficiaries include over 14,000 individuals (50% women and girls).
