Sexual and Reproductive Health is closely linked to women's rights and has far more reaching implications for individuals and communities. Despite it being a fundamental human right, Adolescent girls and young mothers face a unique set of challenges when accessing SRH services. These challenges range from Health care system barriers, societal and cultural barriers, economic barriers and more.Addressing this means investing in SRH education and services, social support systems,infrastructure and economic empowerment. We are partnering with Local health facilities to bring services closer to AGYW in safe spaces through community health outreach where they get access to services such as comprehensive SRH education, Cervical and Breast cancer screening,HIV testing,counseling and referrals, family planning methods and more. It is essential to empower AGYW with information and access to services to improve their overall well-being. #SRH #safespaces #Busika #Luwero #Uganda
