Launching a New Research Effort: The Power of Comprehensive Sexuality Education to Prevent Violence
We will explore how our CSE program prevents violence, supported by the What Works to Prevent Violence Against Women and Girls programme.
Our specialized Educators are bringing essential knowledge, skills, and support to adolescents across rural Madagascar for the first time. As we scale our program, we’re tackling harmful social norms, transforming schools, and driving change within Madagascar’s education system.
SINCE 2013:
200,000
young adolescents in Madagascar have received our in-school comprehensive sexuality education program
EVERY YEAR:
24,000+
hours of sexuality education and leadership are taught by our specialized Educators in Madagascar's public middle schools
Adolescence is tough for young people everywhere. That's especially true in rural Madagascar, where youth have limited access to health information, quality education, and youth-friendly services.
We are transforming this status quo. Our program has had a significant impact on adolescents’ learning and well-being, while strengthening their schools and communities.
