Reproductive Health and Family Planning

The UN reports that nearly 1 in 4 girls in Tanzania becomes pregnant or gives birth by age 18, with significant disparities between rural and urban communities. 

 

Lead For Change International, is committed to advocate for rural adolescents who are often overlooked. We would like to transform embedded community behaviors in rural Tanzania by promoting reproductive health education and facilitating access to culturally sensitive family planning services. Our aim is to not only increase agency, but to also empower the youth in making healthy and informed decisions.
