There are 1.2 billion people between the ages of 10 and 19 in the world today–the largest generation of adolescents ever. Around the world, strong and dynamic youth movements are gaining momentum—and so are their human rights and social justice agendas. From Nigeria to Peru, young people are securing access to comprehensive sexuality education and reproductive health care, and engaging with policymakers locally, nationally, and internationally.
Our resources on youth health and rights include factsheets on comprehensive sexuality education, exemplary curricula, and reports about the impact of HIV, violence, and other factors on the health and rights of young people.
