Rise Up – Calling for future youth champions: (Deadline 15 July 2021)

ADVANCING SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH, RIGHTS, AND JUSTICE

Rise Up’s Youth Champions Initiative invests in powerful young leaders ages 18-29 who are leading the sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice movement in Ethiopia, India, Pakistan, Rwanda, and the United States. Our externally validated model enables young leaders to create large-scale change through leadership development, technology, innovation, and advocacy.

Youth Champions Initiative improves the lives of young people by advancing innovation and quality in the field of sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice globally. Recent successes include:

  • Leveraging WhatsApp in India to deliver youth-friendly mobile instant messaging on SRH;
  • Developing an animated television series in Ethiopia about girl super heroines fighting for girls’ health and rights;
  • Creating comic books in Pakistan to deliver healthy menstrual hygiene information to girls and their families;
  • Teaching youth in the United States to use art, dance, and spoken word poetry to advocate for comprehensive sexuality education.
