We recently convened a meaningful forum bringing together young people from across Mombasa County to engage in critical discussions on Harm Reduction and the wellbeing of young men and women. The dialogue underscored the importance of addressing substance use through compassionate, evidence-based approaches that support People Who Use Drugs (PWUDs) while promoting prevention, dignity, and access to essential services.
The forum provided a platform for youth to share experiences, perspectives, and innovative ideas on how communities can better respond to the challenges associated with substance use. Through open dialogue and collaboration, participants explored practical strategies that prioritize health, inclusion, and community resilience.
As young leaders, we remain committed to advancing interventions that reduce harm, empower communities, and create opportunities for healthier and safer futures. By working together, we can build a Mombasa where every young person has the support and resources they need to thrive.
