In 2000, the Bill & Melinda
Gates Foundation granted $57 million to create an
innovative partnership that would work for five years
to improve adolescent sexual and reproductive health
in Botswana, Ghana, Tanzania and Uganda. The African Youth
Alliance — a
program developed by PATH, Pathfinder International
and the United Nations Population Fund — has strengthened
the ability of existing organizations to serve youth
more effectively, created new methods and techniques,
and changed the lives of thousands of African young
people.
This website offers an overview of the strategies,
resources and successes made possible by the generosity
of the Gates Foundation, and the skill and hard work
of the men, women and youth who have dedicated themselves
to improving sexual and reproductive
health for young people in Africa and around the
world. |
