GOJoven International releases its new bilingual Spanish-English video illustrating the power of youth leadership development as a tool for improving sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) of youth and adolescents.
Through the video viewers learn that in challenging local contexts of high adolescent pregnancy and STI rates, sexual violence and other forms of gender discrimination, GOJoven youth leaders not only empower themselves, but also work to inspire their peers, elevate their families, and change the ASRHR policies, programs, services and social norms in their local communities, countries and regionally.
The video showcases how GOJoven’s Sexual and Reproductive Health Leadership Development Program and nascent local GOJoven alumni-run NGOs foster adolescent sexual and reproductive health improvements in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras and Quintana Roo, Mexico.
