THE OUTREACH CHALLENGE

This is an initiative that seeks to spread awareness about sexual predators who manipulate very young people into unhealthy sexual relationships. Notably, we would be adopting a collective approach via engaging young individuals and communities intended on educating and re-educating beneficiaries to achieve our desired goal.

We intend to reduce the rate of unplanned pregnancy, sex addiction, school dropout, HIV/AIDs prevalence, STD spread, and teenage prostitution by providing relevant practicable solutions and support to adolescents in Nigeria.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

• Create safe spaces for the young to be heard without judgment.
• Provide 24/7 counselling/helplines for adolescents to reach and share their inquiries or experiences
• Sensitize adolescents on the dangers of unprotected sex with an older partner twice or thrice their age using a unique storytelling technique
• Reach 5,000 girls and 2000 boys in six months with our community-by-community strategy, within two years, we intend to reach 200,000 girls and 100,000 boys in all 36 states of the country.
• Distribute comics and videos to every adolescent reached, thereby ensuring they have a resource to study and teach their mates when the need arises.
• Create massive awareness surrounding seeming grey areas of sexual assault due to manipulation and ignorance via social media, tv, radio, and podcasts.
• Provide support and legal aid to victims by connecting them with relevant partner bodies and organizations that provide the necessary assistance.
