Le projet AmplifyPF au Togo : Collaboration avec les chambres préfectorales des métiers dans la mobilisation des jeunes pour leur accès aux informations et services de santé de la reproduction de qualité

Au Togo, les adolescents(es) et les jeunes représentent 32,7% et ont d’énormes besoins d’accès aux informations et services de santé de la reproduction et planification familiale de qualité adaptés à leur situation de jeunes et adolescents. Pour contribuer à satisfaire ces besoins, le projet AmplifyPF Togo a identifié et formé 15 binômes de jeunes champions pour sensibiliser leurs pairs sur la santé de la reproduction et la planification familiale. Mais comment ces binômes formés pourront-ils atteindre leurs pairs éparpillés dans les cinq zones d’intervention du projet ?

La collaboration avec les présidents des chambres préfectorales de métiers fut adoptée comme stratégie de mobilisation et sensibilisation des jeunes et adolescents. Les résultats de cette collaboration sont très significatifs. Joignez-vous au webinaire AmplifyPF Togo pour le partage de ces résultats.

The AmplifyPF project in Togo: Collaboration with the prefectural chambers of trade in the mobilization of young people for their access to quality reproductive health information and services. 

In Togo, adolescents and youth represent 32.7% of the population and have enormous needs for access to quality reproductive health and family planning information and services adapted to their situation as youth and adolescents. To help meet these needs, the AmplifyPF Togo project identified and trained 15 pairs of youth champions to raise awareness about reproductive health and family planning among their peers. But how will these trained pairs be able to reach their peers scattered throughout the project’s five intervention zones?  

Collaboration with the presidents of the prefectural chambers of trade was adopted as a strategy for mobilizing and sensitizing youth and adolescents. The results of this collaboration are very significant. Join the AmplifyPF Togo webinar to share these results.
