Background about The Project :

Project will support Syrian and host community adolescents and young adults as rights

holders and build their capacity to act as active citizens to claim their sexual

reproductive health rights including accessing sexual reproductive services. The

underlying rationale behind the intervention is that when adolescent girls and boys and

young adults have the knowledge and skills about their rights to SRH and available

services, psychosocial competencies or life skills, and have the social networks that

support them, they will be enabled to better navigate their own situation and make

healthy decisions that promote their sexual and reproductive health, rights and well-

being.

At the individual level the project sees adolescents and youth as contributors to their

own protection and are able – in line with evolving capacities – to claim their right to

sexual reproductive health. Activities will promote participatory awareness raising on

SHR, psychosocial well-being through community based activities to support them in

dealing with distress, at the same time and better access to SHR services.

In addition, the intervention recognises the key role that families and communities play

both as enablers and inhibitors of sexual reproductive health rights, and therefore

works to build knowledge and awareness on sexual reproductive health rights,

particularly for adolescents and youth. Caregivers and community leaders will be

mobilized to lead awareness raising on sexual reproductive health rights amongst their

peers and in the wider community. Parents and caregivers will be targeted for

participation in circles, where a trained project staff member together with a parent

volunteer facilitator will hold sessions to discuss topics relevant to parents and

caregivers including parenting skills, parental SRH, adolescents’ SRH and accessing

services. After orientation, key members will be engaged and supported to lead

sensitisation and awareness activities in the local community as well as with targeted

audiences, such as parents who are adopting harmful practices.

At the level of institutions and services, the project aims to address the gap in

awareness of and access to SRH services through mapping and community based

strategies to provide medical and psychosocial support, provide and enhance referral

pathways. For vulnerable adolescents, particularly married girls, young mothers, and

girls who have experienced SGBV, or those who are considered at extreme risk, the

project will ensure access to local SHR, family planning and counselling services

through referrals in collaboration with (clinical) health partners that have been identified

via the service mapping.

The project’s final goal is To empower girls and young women, supported by boys and

young men, to take informed decisions with regards to their lives and bodies as well

as about if, whom and when to marry or get children. To achieve this impact, the

following outcomes are anticipated:

Outcome 1: Adolescent girls and boys and young adults have increased

knowledge, skills and behaviours related to Sexual and Reproductive Health

(SRH), with a particular focus on child marriage and maternal health amongst

youth.

Outcome 2: Spouses, parents, caregivers, and communities have enhanced

knowledge about adolescent SRH rights and services and are increasingly

supportive of girls’ and young women’s sexual and reproductive health rights.

Outcome 3: Adolescent girls and boys, and their caregivers, and young women,

men and their spouses have improved access to inclusive, community-based,

youth-friendly and gender responsive SRH services
