Also access to online SRHR information has been provided but minimal, does not always reflect the needs, and has issues in reaching young women through the right channels.The results of the baseline KAP survey show that the level of knowledge on SRHR varies significantly amongst gender and across regions. A majority of young women participants highlighted during focus group discussions that they are not aware of the definition of sexual health and lack the basic knowledge on the matter. Young men participants, on the other hand, were able to identify more easily with the term and provide more concrete examples. The opposing levels of awareness and knowledge is explained by restricting social norms and values that lead specifically young women participants to associate SRHR topics with fear and shame, and influence their ability to access such information. Reproductive health and rights, on the other hand, were more easily identified by both young women and men participants, as they are more socially acceptable to discuss and are understood to be generally more directly related to pregnancy and child birth. However, young women participants demonstrated more detailed knowledge of the topic. The majority of the survey respondents do not believe that young women and men/ girls and boys receive sufficient SRHR education. More respondents believe that young men and boys receive sufficient SRHR education, as 27% agreed to the statement, compared to 23% who agreed that young women and girls receive sufficient SRHR education. It is notable that only 3% of young men respondents report that they have no knowledge at all, a much higher rate was reported by young women respondents (17%). Activities aiming at providing young women with comprehensive, corrective information on SRHR shall include:- A capacity building program for grass root self-organized groups of young people with disabilities (YPWDs)- Capacity development for group of youth activists university students and graduates on SRHR issues, rights, protection measures and pathways. With their current partner, RNW Media works to provide comprehensive, correct information on SRHR to young women through a combination of offline and online channels. The current partner will be capacitated in creating engaging SRHR content as a result of which they will be enabled to share and disseminate correct and comprehensive SRHR information on their digital and offline platforms to reach targeted young women. A total of 44 young women out of the planned 153 were reached with comprehensive and correct information on SRHR. During the reporting period, partners provided youth with comprehensive SRHR information. Delays witnessed in signing the contract prevented one partner from conducting training to their youth on comprehensive SRHR information and thus the set target was not fully realized. In 2022, RNW Media will continue close collaboration with their partner, which will be capacitated to use a digital platform that will ensure the "latest and up-to-date information" on SRHR. This digital platform enables partners to use comprehensive, correct information on topics (yet to be defined) like Gender Based Violence, if the context allows, and will further increase the reach to the targeted young women. Through training on SRHR provided by a RNW Media partner organisation to another partner organisation staff (including clinical staff), the knowledge and skills mainly among professionals have increased and they are able to provide support and respond to young people needs on SRH issues in a more sensitive, informed and hence qualitative manner. 40 cases (25 adult cases - 20 females and 5 males, as well as 15 adolescent cases - 9 females and 6 males) related to exposure to violence in its various forms were referred to the clinical department of the partner staff and provided with individual sessions.A total of 1,073 young women (aged 18-35) were reached with comprehensive and correct information on SRHR during the reporting period by partners of the Oxfam Country Office. A total of 179 awareness raising sessions were conducted in 3 locations through 2 partner organisations. The topics of the awareness raising sessions were around gender based violence, contraceptives, personal hygiene, sexual harassment, infertility, sexually transmitted infections, early marriage and  family planning. The sessions adopted creative methods to convey messages including the use of drama, videos, games, role play and stories telling. As the target for some of these activities was not yet known at the time of annual plan 2022, the total 2022 actual (1082 young women) exceeds the target (330 young women) included in the annual plan 2022. Oxfam and its partners will reach 5000 female diverse YP through awareness raising session, radio episodes, educational moves and Live Action Role Playing (LARP) game. A total of 3,734 young women were reached through the 316 awareness sessions on SRHR conducted in 3 cities in the country by Oxfam partner organizations. These sessions covered various topics including gender-based violence, personal hygiene, and SRHR issues. Oxfam and partners will reach 500 young women with comprehensive and correct SRHR information through the following actvities: Awareness raising initiatives in their communities; Organize Masarouna talk 2 to amplify youth voices like story telling event to share success stories publicly from youth to their peers; Conduct online campaign to disseminate key findings of the research (research based on key findings and the top priorities that the Adolescent Health gaps have shown); Digital advocacy and lobbying campaign that supports reproductive and sexual health issue.RNW Media could not provide targets for 2024 yet due to the current context. A total of 11,042 young women (aged 18-35) were reached in comprehensive and correct information on SRHR. During the reporting period by the six partnersOver 250 awareness raising and peer to peers sessions were conducted through four partner organisations. The topics of the awareness raising sessions were around gender based violence, personal hygiene, sexual harassment, pornography and its negative effects on youth, infertility, pre-marital counselling, early marriage and family planning. The project will implement around 230 comprehensive face to face and SRHR awareness session in addition to 14 the online/offline advocacy initiatives targeting diverse groups from the country, including displaced communities, parents of children with disabilities, youth, and religious leaders. Activities will include coaching sessions for parents, youth-led awareness campaigns and initiatives, reaching 3000 young women A RNW Media partner organization reached 80 young women through a workshop on respect and GBV prevention. The workshop promoted participants’ confidence and agency, discussing their role as active and informed members of society and providing them with problem-solving skills. Relationships were also discussed as an important topic for young people. In addition, the partner provided training to 60 young people (24 young women, 36 young men) about changes during adolescence and GBV. Most participants (97%) declared that the workshops were relevant to their interests and provided them with new information.The multi-topic nature of the workshop attracted participants who saw it as both informative and a capacity strengthening opportunity.Additionally, a total of 3,006 young women were reached with comprehensive and accurate information on SRHR during the reporting period. Over 180 awareness-raising and peer-to-peer sessions were conducted by multiple Oxfam partner organizations. These sessions covered a range of topics, including SRHR in emergencies, advocacy and influencing, gender mainstreaming, inclusive communication, digital advocacy tools, research design and methodology, research ethics and conceptual frameworks, qualitative and quantitative research methods, data collection and analysis, youth advocacy and leadership development, and policy influence and civic engagement.Moreover, Oxfam’s partner implemented four youth promotional initiatives on July 10, 2025, engaging 92 young women in creative and interactive campaigns addressing SRHR challenges and promoting informed decision-making and positive behavioral change among YP. Oxfam’s partner carried out five awareness and advocacy initiatives reaching 151 young women, including persons with disabilities and their families, through medical days, SRHR awareness sessions, and the distribution of 84 assistive devices and food parcels.

N/A N/A N/A N/A IO 2.1 CSOs working with young people are empowered to form partnerships for collective advocacy on SRHR for diverse young people KI-10b # Advocacy initiatives at all other levels (national/international) in which CSOs/movements undertake collective action towards SRHR for diverse young people There are very few digital media interventions that focus on SRHR advocacy. The concept is still new but there are a couple of initiatives from few CSOs who are trying to advocate on SRHR topics. The scope of these efforts are very small and limited. Civil society organizations have data collection capabilities, but have shortcomings in the aspect of data and information analysis. This hinders the development of evidence-based advocacy interventions. In collaboration with RNW Media, partners will organise several joint advocacy initiatives with/by/for young people, mostly campaigns, that are linked with international days (like the 16 days of activism). The Oxfam Country Office and and partners will implement 10 Advocacy initiatives at all other levels, building on the studies developed under Masarouna on youth right to Reproductive Health Rights (RHR), rights of people with disabilities (PWDs) to SRHR, and gaps in polices and laws related to SRHR. A national influencing strategy will be developed based on these studies, therefore, youth and partners will work to operationalize the influencing strategy by launching campaigns that call for policy change related to youth right to SRH. Further, part of the initiative that youth will work on will target their local communities to shift social norms that hinder them from claiming their SRHR. Update Oct. 2023:Advocacy intiatives organised by partners in collaboration with RNW Media will be based on RNW Media's campaign calendar that will be rolled out late 2023. RNW Media is adjusting its 5-year target from 15 to 3 advocacy initiatives. This is based on low realization against 5-year target at midterm, as well as the current context.Oxfam is planning to implement several additional advocacy initiatives on SRHR issues, targeting decision makers, stakeholders, community leaders, religious leaders, media and other organizations towards developing and implementing a unified SRHR strategy. Oxfam country office is adjusting its target from 10 to 20. The additional target resulted from partnering with NGOs and as the programme is focusing on advocacy and influencing in 2024.The consolidated target for the consortium has hence been adjusted at midterm from 15 to 20 advocacy initiatives at all other levels, where we have taken the highest target between the consortium partners (RNW Media #3, Oxfam contry office #20), to avoid possible double counting. One Oxfam partner conducted in 2022 a two-day workshop for youth groups to increase their knowledge and skills on advocacy. The youth groups then implemented five small advocacy initiatives, which focused on SRHR for women with disabilities, access to SRH services, awareness on breast cancer. The advocacy initiatives included two round table discussions with decision makers and two open days. To foster access of women with disabilities to breast cancer test, different centres that provide free tests were contacted, and support provided to these women. Another Oxfam partner provided capacity-building training on advocacy and SRHR to youths, who in turn developed and implemented five advocacy initiatives, including the following:- Implementation of five knowledge and five medical days- "Masarouna" Marathon in conjunction with the 16-day of activism campaign to eliminate violence against women- Filming and producing 10 short videos carrying messages about reproductive health services and rights, including a motion graphic video- Two tweeting sessions (publishing and blogging on social media platforms) and running an opinion poll in the community about people's views on SRHR.In July 2023, another Oxfam partner, which is a coalition of NGOs, released a digital advocacy media radio spot and an infographic video detailing NGO's concerns as regards of a new policy that that is restrictive for non-profit organizations in the country.The 3 RNW Media partners in the country worked together in 2022 on a campaign which aimed at raising young people and parents awareness on SRHR. 2 videos and 4 brochures were produced and spread. In total, 11 advocay initiatives at all other levels, in which CSOs undertook collective action towards SRHR for diverse young people, were implemented. Oxfam’s partner led two advocacy campaigns in 2023. The first campaign involved conducting awareness sessions for both local and national NGOs, complemented by a strong social media initiative. The primary goal of this campaign is to emphasize the pivotal role that non-profit corporations (NPCs) play in supporting civil society. At the same time, it addresses challenges caused by regulations that hinder the effective functioning of the NPC in their efforts to serve the local community. The second advocacy campaign, comprises three research studies and papers aimed at enhancing knowledge, information, and analysis related to the laws and regulations governing Non-Profit Companies (NPCs).Additionally, in 2024, the Youth Advisory Group for Oxfam office received training on advocacy tools and launched a campaign highlighting the needs of women and girls for menstrual hygiene products. The campaign was disseminated via email to stakeholders, donors, NGOs, and INGOs, as well as shared on social media platforms to raise awareness and mobilize support.

The concept is still new but there are a couple of initiatves from few CSOs who are trying to advocate on SRHR topics. The scope of these efforts are very small and limited. Civil society organizations have data collection capabilities, but have shortcomings in the aspect of data and information analysis. This hinders the development of evidence-based advocacy interventions. Update Oct. 2023:Oxfam partners will collaborate together and with other CSOs in order to produce, among others, a policy brief, an evidence-based research on SRHR and a national conference targeting decision-makers. The policy brief produced will provide recommendations on how to enhance the knowledge on youth SRHR, remove barriers hindering its advancement, and will be a tool for the youth to advocate for an inclusive SRH system.In collaboration with RNW Media, one not women or youth led partner will organise at least 2 joint advocacy initiatives with/by/for YP, mostly campaigns, that are linked with international days (like the 16 days of activism). This will be based on RNW Media's campaign calendar that will be rolled out late 2023.Masarouna’s strategic partner will hold the "Advocay Lab" activity on a yearly basis. Each year, 4 CSOs operating in the 6 Masarouna countries will be selected. At the end of the activity, each CSO is asked to design an advocacy campaign and will receive a small amount of 10K to implement it. It is possible that Masarouna’s strategic partner will include CSOs operating outside the scope of the 6 Masarouna countries if funding is collected. In 2023, 1 CSO will be selected in the country. The CSO will take part of the Advocacy Lab, alongside 3 regional CSOs. A collective advocacy initiative is expected to be carried out by the 4 CSOs.Oxfam in country had so far not defined its 5-year target for this KI; at midterm, it is setting it at 5 advocacy initiatives.RNW Media is adjusting its 5-year target from 8 to 2 advocacy initiatives. This is based on low realization against the 5-year target at midterm, because of challenges to working together between partners collaboratively, which has limited the scope for joint advocacy. Masarouna's strategic partner is not adjusting its 5-year for this KI at midterm, keeping it at 3 advocacy initiatives.The consolidated target has hence been adjusted from 8 to 5 advocacy intiatives at midterm, where we have taken the highest target between consortium partners (Oxfam #5, RNW Media #2, strategic partner #3), to avoid possible double counting. Although no direct implementation was done on this, Oxfam identified and selected partners, finalized ideation of concept notes and conducted partnership assessments. The selected partners will be working both at national and sub-national levels, creating evidence-based research on SRHR, a national conference targeting decision-makers and a national policy brief on SRHR.A civic space mapping is also currently in progress, which will be feeding into informing our advocacy efforts to support an enabled and open civic space in the country.During the first half of July, the Advocacy Lab, a three-fold training, was held by the strategic partner, gathering 3 CSOs from the MENA region and 1 local CSO. These were trained on Community Organizing, Tactical Mapping and Adaptive leadership. A MEAL and a proposal writing sessions were also delivered to participants on the last day of the training. Participants received the training needed to develop their own advocacy campaign, from the following angles: assessing the needs of the community, developing a strategy, designing interventions, leadership and setting targets. Following the 12 day training, the CSOs were invited to develop an advocacy campaign each, write a proposal (narrative and budget) and submit it to the strategic partner by the end of September 2023.Following the training, each CSO will receive a 10,000 USD grant to implement their advocacy campaign iin the year to come.One of the in-country partners of RNW Media is part of the Masarouna Country Coordination Group (CCG). The group was formed in February 2023 by the Masarouna consortium and partner organizations to discuss their activities and follow up on how they can advocate at local level for SRHR. This partner will be supporting other CSOs on content dissemination to help with a higher reach and audience engagement which eventually serves in advocating towards enhancing the SRHR situation in the country. In 2023, Oxfam CO facilitated a roundtable convening young professionals and experts from multiple organizations. The event explored the impact of shadow bans on freedom of expression, legal considerations, content moderation, and future advocacy strategies.In the same year, Oxfam CO facilitated a panel with two partner organizations discussing gender implications of armed conflict, raising awareness among young professionals, students, and sector experts on humanitarian law and conflict impact on women. An RNW Media partner supported a campaign to protect new media legislation, providing publicity to strengthen collective advocacy led by several organizations. In collaboration with another organisation, the same partner conducted advocacy efforts focused on legal reform and support for marginalized groups facing backlash, including tailored campaigning sessions and technical support. In 2024, Masarouna’s strategic partner and others undertook an advocacy initiative to advance young people’s SRHR, applying skills and strategies from capacity building. Despite challenging environments, CSOs adapted their approaches for effective advocacy. In the same year, Oxfam CO supported a feminist platform in developing a gender analysis brief on increased gender-based violence and actions for response. The brief was shared with UN Women and Gender Task Force organizations, discussed collectively, and used to inform advocacy and future GBV programming.In 2025, a national policy dialogue on young people’s SRHR facilitated by Oxfam partners brought together agencies and organizations to identify policy gaps, share successful models, and draft recommendations. Follow-up actions focus on improving access to SRHR education and services.In the same year, Oxfam CO convened a closed roundtable to present research on the needs of marginalized groups, bringing together CSOs, youth groups, and donors to discuss findings and shape programming recommendations. EO4 CSOs working with young people have increased their organisational capacities and have increased their civic space influencing capacity (online/offline) on SRHR KI-13 # CSOs/movements, both women and youth led, supported by Masarouna to strengthen their civic space influencing capacity In relation to civic space influencing, Oxfam country office (both women and youth led organization) expressed interest in further improving the following capacity topics: understanding and navigating civic space, civic space risk mitigation and protection of staff, protection in digital space, health and wellbeing, perception by and relation with constituency, and strengthening and broadening partnerships with movements and coalitions. (Source: CATool 2022) At the end of 2023, Oxfam is planning for a competitive process to work with 1 partner (both women and youth led formal or informal movement) over the life of the project to implement related actions and initiatives. For 2024, (mutual) capacity strengthening interventions will be developed to address gaps in terms of civic space influencing capacity of this both women and youth led movement and of Oxfam in the country. Capacity strengthening topics will be defined based on the CATool among other; at this stage, a potential capacity strengthening topic is protection in digital space. (Oxfam and this new partner are not included in the quantitative target for KI-13/2024 in IATI to avoid double counting with the target reported for this organisation for KI-6 for 2024.) In relation to civic space influencing capacity, Oxfam reported further increased capacity on Civic space risk mitigation and protection of staff; Perception by and relation with constituency; Protection in digital space; Strengthen/broaden partnerships; and Understanding and navigating civic space in 2024. Based on the criteria agreed on, an actual is realised, however not reported in IATI as already reported under KI-6 in 2023. Additionally, one both women and youth led movement achieved an actual based on the criteria agreed on, the partner reported increased capacity on Civic space risk mitigation and protection of staff; and Strengthen/broaden partnerships in 2024, and the actual is reported in IATI, as this was the first time this partner realized an actual for 1 of the 3 capacity strengthening KIs. Moreover, two both women and youth led movements, reported increased capacity on Civic space risk mitigation and protection of staff during the course of 2024. This did not result in an actual as per the criteria agreed on. As for two other "both women and youth led" partners, they did not participate in the CATool in 2024 and hence their capacities is not yet assessed. Capacity strengthening in relation to civic space influencing will focus on the needs as expressed by respective organisations involved in Masarouna in the country. (Mutual) capacity strengthening strategies will be developed to address the gaps.These are expected to result in increased capacities on influencing in 2023 and/or beyond. In 2022, consortium partners in the country were still identifying local partners to work with from 2023 onwards. Therefore, no capacity development on civic space influencing has taken place yet. Capacity strengthening in relation to civic space influencing will focus on the needs as expressed by respective organisations involved in Masarouna in the country. (Mutual) capacity strengthening strategies will be developed to address the gaps.These are expected to result in increased capacities on influencing in 2023 and/or beyond.

The activity wasn’t included in the 2024 plan, hence the 0 target, but it was in the pipeline and proceeded once the conditions allowed. 1800 young men will be reached by Oxfam and partners with comprehensive, correct information on SRHR for diverse young people through face-to-face activities. Through the conduction of awareness raising sessions, the project will focus on sharing information on SRHR that are relevant to YP and science based. Contents will vary depending on the target group. The sessions will focus on STIs, contraceptive methods and family planning and other SRHR modules. For young people in universities, camps, urban areas, and youth centers there will be a focus also on puberty, menstruation management and menstrual hygiene. In 2025, the SRHR awareness program reached 1,183 young men, with an additional 13 men over 35 participating in selected sessions. All activities were delivered face-to-face across universities and private venues. These sessions were implemented 3 Oxfam partners under the Masarouna program. Key topics included menstrual cycles and reproductive health.Evaluations from a sample of 130 males demonstrated an 86.9% satisfaction rate, with participants highlighting the usefulness of interactive activities, open discussions, and the practical relevance of the information shared. Feedback praised the trainers’ clarity, the diversity of SRHR topics covered, and the opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue. Participants reported increased understanding of reproductive health and valued the safe space to ask questions without judgement.Male participation in the 2025 awareness sessions was below annual target (66%) mainly due to social norms and the sensitivity of SRHR topics, which discouraged men from attending. Additionally, partners—being mostly women-led NGOs—focused outreach more on women to provide safe, supportive spaces, further limiting male engagement. KI-7a # Female young people reached with comprehensive, correct information on SRHR for diverse young people, facilitated by Masarouna (not including young people reached via social media only) Over the years, SRHR information provided by educational institutes has not been comprehensive and often does not reflect the realities and needs of young women. Available research shows that the majority of young people lack knowledge on SRHR. In 2021, 1500 young women will be reached by Oxfam and their partners with comprehensive, correct information on SRHR for diverse young people. Through the conduction of awareness raising sessions, the project will focus on sharing information on SRHR that are relevant to young people and science based. Contents will vary depending on the target group. The topics covered in 2021 included: reproduction, puberty and menstruation, gender based violence.● Positive attitude by participants towards the SRHR information. A number of participants asked for their daughter, son, relatives and friends to get a chance to participate in the awareness activities.● According to an evaluation on the activity day, most of the participants recommend this awareness raising project to continue and have more involvement of young people. ● Most of the participants mentioned that they have got the correct information about SRHR through these activities while they have got wrong information from the internet. In 2022, RNW Media and their partners work together to provide comprehensive, correct information on SRHR to young women through a combination of offline and online channels. CBOs will be capacitated in creating engaging SRHR content as a result of which they will be enabled to share and disseminate correct and comprehensive SRHR information on their digital and offline platforms to reach targeted young women.In addition, country partners will be capacitated to use a digital platform that will ensure the "latest and up-to-date information" on SRHR. This platform enables partners to use comprehensive, correct information on topics (yet to be defined) like Gender Based Violence, if the context allows, and further increases the reach to the targeted young women. The targets set for 2022 for this indicator did not materialize due to the fact that the RNW Media partner concerned ceased to be part of the partnership in the course of 2022. A series of activities were implemented by Oxfam partners aimed at educating young women on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) were implemented. A total number of 4,267 young women were reached. The program covered several topics including reproductive health, STIs, gender-based violence (GBV), and contraceptive methods. Delivery was in various venues. Online sessions using Zoom proved to be successful in reaching the young people who could not attend the face to face sessions. The use of Zoom proved to be safer for participants to ask and engage, and feel more free to talk and ask without being judged or recognized by their community. Tackling topics of family planning, menstrual cycle, contraception, STIs, and GBV.Evaluations were conducted every three sessions to ensure SRHR understanding and appropriateness. A sample of 1,625 young women provided feedback, with 98% indicating satisfaction with the program. Feedback showed a positive attitude toward the information provided. Many participants also appreciated having a safe space to discuss their SRHR issues and learn how to deal with them. 2500 young women will be reached by Oxfam and their partners with comprehensive, correct information on SRHR for diverse young people. Through the conduction of awareness raising sessions, the project will focus on sharing information on SRHR that are relevant to young people and science based. Contents will vary depending on the target group. The sessions will focus on STIs, contraceptive methods and family planning, menstruation management and menstrual hygiene. As a result of participating in events organised by RNW Media's partner, 41 young women will receive correct and comprehensive information on SRHR. A series of activities took place aimed at educating young women on SRHR topics were implemented. A total number of 3,734 young women reached. The program covered several topics including Our Bodies, Menstrual Cycle and Reproductive Health. The delivery of activities was in various venues.It is worth mentioning that Zoom (reaching 265 young women) proved to be successful in reaching young people in the MENA region, who could not attend in the face to face sessions. The use of zoom proved to be safer for participants to ask and engage, and feel more free to talk and ask without being judged. Tackling topics of family planning, menstrual cycle, hormones and body changes for young people.Evaluations were conducted every three sessions to ensure SRHR understanding and appropriateness. A sample of 2,117 young women provided feedback, with 94.6% indicating satisfaction with the activities. Feedback showed a positive attitude toward the information provided, with the majority finding the information on menstrual cycles to be new and useful for their teenage years and enjoyed alot the learning activities throughout the session. Many participants also appreciated having a safe space to discuss their SRHR issues and learn how to deal with them and raise their SRHR consciousness. In addition, many participants voiced a wish for more sessions and suggested extending their duration to allow for in-depth discussions and learning opportunities. 2700 young women will be reached by Oxfam and partners with comprehensive, correct information on SRHR for diverse young people through face-to-face activities. Through the conduction of awareness raising sessions, the project will focus on sharing information on SRHR that are relevant to young people and science based. Contents will vary depending on the target group. The sessions will focus on family planning and other SRHR modules. For young people in universities, camps, urban areas, and youth centers there will be a focus also on puberty, menstruation management and menstrual hygiene. RNW Media partner organised five regional awareness seminars (163 young women participated) to increase knowledge of SRHR services provided by the regional Ministry of Health. Among them, 66 young women attended a session on menstrual health and hygiene, 20 of whom had no prior knowledge. The activity increased understanding of menstruation, hygiene, and body changes, helped break stigma around it. Observational and qualitative-based feedback from educators confirmed that the seminars raised awareness and helped break the silence and shame around menstrual healthIn 2025, Oxfam partners' SRHR awareness program reached 2,847 young women, with an additional 139 women over 35 participating in selected sessions. All activities were conducted face-to-face across universities and private venues. These sessions were implemented by 3 Oxfam partners under the Masarouna program. Key topics included menstrual cycles and reproductive health.Evaluations from a sample of 566 women showed a 91% satisfaction rate, with participants frequently appreciating the interactive learning approach, safe and supportive environment, and practical knowledge gained. Many described the content as engaging, comprehensive, and relevant to their needs. Feedback highlighted the trainers’ clarity, the range of SRHR topics covered, and the opportunity to ask questions openly, with reproductive health cited as particularly useful. Participants also expressed enthusiasm for the participatory format, which made the sessions both informative and enjoyable.Participation by young women was above the annual target (111%) mainlly because of the awareness seminars with young women organised by one of the partners, the targets of which were not yet included at the time of planning. 5100 young women will be reached by Oxfam and partners with comprehensive, correct information on SRHR for diverse young people: 4800 through face-to-face activities, and 300 through online awareness raising (not on social media). Through the conduction of awareness raising sessions, the project will focus on sharing information on SRHR that are relevant to young people and science based. Contents will vary depending on the target group. The sessions will focus on STIs, contraceptive methods and family planning, menstruation management and menstrual hygiene. The SRHR awareness program reached 7,040 young women, with an additional 139 women over 35 participating in certain sessions. Of the total, 305 were engaged via Zoom, which provided a safer and more inclusive platform for discussions. Key topics included menstrual cycles, reproductive health, delivered in face to face and virtual sessions. Evaluations from a sample of 2,370 women showed 94.1% satisfaction, with many appreciating the interactive activities, safe space, and practical knowledge gained. Women participants expressed broad satisfaction with the SRHR sessions, with many highlighting that they appreciated all aspects of the sessions. They found the content engaging, comprehensive, and relevant, reflecting the program’s success in meeting their informational and educational needs.Moreover, one partner of RNW Media engaged 350 young women in SRHR awareness workshops across the country. Young leaders facilitated discussions, and help students understand SRHR related life-stage changes. The sessions were interactive and participants asked questions, showing increased interest and awareness. The discussions were adapted to the country context and the interests of the students, for instance, topics such as the ideal body shape and its link to social media pressure were addressed. These workshops were organized in collaboration with local community members. The activity was not included in the 2024 plan, hence the 0 target, but it was in the pipeline and proceeded once the conditions allowed. IO 2.1 CSOs working with young people are empowered to form partnerships for collective advocacy on SRHR for diverse young people KI-10b # Advocacy initiatives at all other levels (national/international) in which CSOs/movements undertake collective action towards SRHR for diverse young people SRHR is considered as a new area of intervention; a lack of easy and accessible information as well as socio-cultural barriers means that SRHR topics are still not well understood and therefore rarely addressed in public. Reproductive health, in particular maternal health is addressed but other issues are excluded both within public and private spaces. Update Oct. 2023:In collaboration with RNW Media, their in country partner will organise at least two joint advocacy initiatives with/by/for young people, mostly campaigns, that are linked with international days (like the 16 days of activism). This will be based on RNW Media's campaign calendar that will be rolled out late 2023. The adjustment from 10 to 2 advocacy initiatives is based on low realization against the 5-year target at midterm, as well as the current context. In 2024, RNW Media partner collaborated with two CSOs in country on collective advocacy initiatives. For the first iniative they participated in two panel discussions alongside other CSOs, as part of a national campaign opposing the proposed child marriage law. They also produced social media content to amplify awareness. For the second initiative they highlighted the link between financial independence and women's rights through social media. This initiative helped integrate economic empowerment into youth advocacy narratives. IO 2.2 CSOs and social movements working with young people have adapted to shifting civic space and reclaimed space through movement building and stronger and more innovative alliances. KI-11a # Cases at all other levels (national/international) where CSOs/movements succeed in creating space for their demands and positions The civic space in the region where Masarouna is implemented is considered obstructed, repressed or closed, and the country is no exception. Laws contain provisions that have been used to repress opposition and freedom of expression. International actors are not exempt from this. Current space for CSOs working with diverse young people to connect online is minimal. There is limited space for YP and civil society to engage decision-makers, including governments, to fight for their rights, in particular SRHR and influence harmful social and cultural norms. The development of the digital platform is an innovative alliance of Oxfam and RNW Media. Over the years, a local CSO working with diverse young people will be added to the alliance and prepared to take over the management of the platform. The partners will be strengthened to build a strong movement. The CSO will be able to influence the agenda and decision making processes with and for diverse young people, based on information collected and disseminated through the digital platforms they have developed over the past 5 years. There is no quantitative or qualitative progress to report under KI-11a since midterm. By 2024, when the partnerships between RNW Media and their first in country partner and between RNW Media and Oxfam in country were ended, the planned activity between Oxfam in country and RNW Media for the joint digital platform had not been initiated, primarily due to contextual and operational challenges that made implementation in-country unfeasible. NL-KVK-32022621-650418 Stichting RNW Media Led by Rutgers with partners across Asia and Africa, the RHRN2 consortium enables young people in all their diversity to enjoy their SRHR in gender-just societies. Through access to SRHR information on- and offline, young people, especially girls, women and LGBTQIA+ are empowered to make decisions about their sexuality, voice their needs and claim their rights. RNW Media provides digital media expertise to reach and engage young people in the RHRN2 implementing countries. Together with partners and changemakers, we co-create digital media solutions that are contextualised and youth-centred – using digital media for knowledge strengthening, awareness raising and mass mobilisation for advocacy.
