Developing Bold and Transformative Commitments to Adolescents and Youth

To meet its goals, FP2030 partners must promote and protect the rights of adolescents and youth (AY) to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services, including contraception. Strong commitments that prioritize adolescent and youth sexual and reproductive health (AYSRHR) send a clear message about the vital importance of improving adolescent and youth SRH knowledge, fostering their agency and ability to make informed decisions, facilitating their access to high-quality SRH services responsive to their needs, and ensuring a supportive policy and social environment. Actionable commitments will include rights-based and evidence-informed strategies that assist AY to improve their understanding of SRHR, correct myths and misinformation around sexuality and contraception, develop skills that support positive behaviors and decision-making, and emphasize the importance of voluntary choice in the use of contraception. The World Health Organization’s guidance on Global Accelerated Action for the Health of Adolescents (AA-HA) is a key resource for anyone who wants to develop a commitment that includes advancing AYSRHR. This guidance is specifically designed to assist governments in deciding how to respond to the health needs of adolescents and young people.
