Protection from violence
Our goal is to ensure girls, boys, and adolescents can live in environments free from harmful practices, have the knowledge and skills to identify situations of violence, and duty bearers recognise and act against violence towards children and adolescents.
Sexual and reproductive health and rights
Our goal is to ensure children, adolescents and young people in all their diversity have control of their lives and bodies, and can make decisions about their sexuality, free from discrimination, coercion or violence.
