Young women in Africa have insufficient access to high-quality sexual and reproductive health and rights information and services. Many young leaders are reaching their peers through digital innovations that save lives This #YouthDay support young women's leadership and agency.

Leaders should ensure greater investments into education as a means to reduce high HIV rates among adolescent girls and young women in Africa. #TimeForEducationPlus. Jackie Makokha
