Partner: UNFPA
Year of Implementation: 2015-2017
In collaboration with UNFPA, this project aimed to strengthen national capacities for community-based interventions in reproductive health to empower women and young people in Sohag governorate. Etijah designed a training manual to raise awareness to young people about correct behaviors related to the reproductive health issue to promote their civic engagement, namely volunteerism. To reach that end, Etijah worked with 10 local NGOs on training their staff in order to establish volunteer units in each NGO and attract at least 20 volunteers to cascade the content of the manual to their families. Etijah was responsible for designing the reproductive health curriculum as well as the volunteerism management.
