Global: Safe Passages to Adulthood
Enabling young people to improve their sexual and reproductive health
10.05.2006
All over the world, young people experience a disproportionate share of unplanned pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS, and other sexual and reproductive health problems. Developed with the support of the UK Department for International Development (DfID), Safe Passages to Adulthood is a programme of research into young people’s sexual and reproductive health in poorer country settings. Programme activities aim to increase the capacity of developing country partners to generate new knowledge and develop systematic guidelines for action at programme and policy levels.
