Скачать или смотреть Investing in change: Jackline’s journey from adolescence to empowerment

Age 17, pregnant, and with nowhere to turn—this was Jackline’s early reality. But thanks to the "2gether 4 SRHR" programme in Namayingo, training in nutrition, farming, and peer mentorship changed the path she walked.

Now at 24, she’s stronger, healthier, feeding her family well, supporting others, and growing her own small farm enterprise. Mentorship, dignity, and proper services transformed not just one life—but a community.

In Namayingo District, where the teenage pregnancy rate is a staggering 27 per cent, and malnutrition among mothers and children is widespread, "2gether 4 SRHR", a joint ‪@unitednations‬ regional programme, is taking a new approach. (See more 👉 https://www.2gether4srhr.org/news/fro...)

In partnership with the Government of Sweden, ‪@UNICEF‬ and the Uganda Ministry of Health have combined health and nutrition services, knowing that young mums have the greatest needs on both fronts, and if not addressed, their children will face the same issues.

Together we are turning vulnerability into strength and creating lasting change for families and communities.

"2gether 4 SRHR" is a joint UN Regional Programme, in partnership with the Swedish government, which brings together the combined efforts of UNAIDS, UNFPA, UNICEF and ‪@who‬ to improve the sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) of all people in Eastern and Southern Africa.
