In cricket, a strong partnership can change the course of a match; in life, it can change the world. 🏏🌍

UNFPA is embarking on this partnership with celebrated cricket icon, Sanju Samson, to join hands for gender equality and encourage male allyship.

True sportspersonship goes beyond the boundary. It is about promoting equal opportunities, embracing positive masculinity, and recognising that respecting women and girls is non-negotiable.

Together, with this collaboration, UNFPA is encouraging all men and boys to step up actively as allies to break down harmful gender stereotypes and stop discrimination.

Stay tuned to learn more about Sanju’s lived experiences on gender equality and male allyship!

Today, on the International Day of Clean Air for Blue Skies, we’re thrilled to team up with Shweta Tripathi to uncover a side of air pollution we rarely discuss: the air inside our homes. 🌤️

For millions of women in India, toxic smoke from cooking with solid fuels is a silent health crisis. These harmful PM2.5 particles can travel through the umbilical cord, drastically raising the risks of miscarriages and preterm births.

To safeguard the next generation, UNFPA India is equipping frontline health workers to track pollution exposure during routine check-ups and link families to the Government’s PM Ujjwala Yojana for clean LPG fuel.

NFHS-6 shows encouraging progress in reducing child marriage among women aged 20–24 📊📈🎉.

Sustaining this progress requires continued investments in education 📚, social protection🛡️, adolescent-responsive health services 🏥, community engagement 🤝, and effective implementation of the law ⚖️.

While girls 👧 remain disproportionately affected, child marriage can also affect boys 👦, disrupting education 📖❌, limiting opportunities 🚫🌱 and placing children in adult roles before they are ready ⏳.

Change doesn’t happen all at once. 🌱 It happens one indicator 📈, one community 🏘️ and one generation at a time. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

NFHS-6 reflects important progress across health 🏥, family planning 🩺 and women’s empowerment 💪‍♀️, while providing valuable evidence to guide future action. 🧭 Behind every statistic are people, families and communities 👥—and data that helps shape better policies and programmes. 📝

💡 Comprehensive education & health rights
