Access to s*xual and reproductive health services can change the course of a young person’s life. In Mabvuku, Zimbabwe, YouthWyze outreaches are helping adolescents and young people access youth-friendly SRHR services without fear of stigma or discrimination. Through the leadership of trained youth hubsters, communities are challenging harmful attitudes, increasing access to contraceptives, and ensuring that young people's voices are heard in health decision-making spaces. Their story is a powerful example of how youth-led solutions can break barriers, strengthen communities, and improve health outcomes for adolescents.

In Mutasa District, Zimbabwe, SAT and its partners are helping learners stay in school by strengthening access to school health services, early disease detection, and timely referrals for care. Through a collaborative approach involving schools, health facilities, communities, civil society organisations, and government ministries, more than 9,000 learners received health assessments, health information, and support services that contribute to improved wellbeing and learning outcomes. By addressing health challenges that can lead to absenteeism and school dropout, this initiative is helping create healthier learning environments where learners can thrive and reach their full potential.

Today we also honour the Day of the African Child

A day that reminds us that every child has the right to be heard, protected, educated, and supported to reach their full potential.

Across the continent, children continue to face barriers in education, safety, healthcare, and access to opportunities, but their voices remain powerful, resilient, and necessary in shaping better systems for the future ✊🏾

This day calls on all of us to move beyond intention and strengthen the systems that protect children’s rights, ensuring participation, accountability, and real action where it matters most.

At YouthWyze, we believe that when children are heard and supported early, they grow into empowered young people who can thrive in every space they enter 💡

By protecting children today, we are building Africa’s future tomorrow!

Why do s*x workers need a day of solidarity? Across the world and in our region in East and Southern Africa, s*x workers continue to face violence, including s*xual violence, stigma, discrimination, extortion and barriers to healthcare.

Criminalisation often pushes people further away from essential HIV, s*xual and reproductive health, and legal services.

International S*x Workers' Day is a reminder that development, health, gender equality, and human rights cannot be achieved while any group is denied dignity, safety, justice, and a voice in decisions that affect their lives. Justice must be for everyone in Africa – without discrimination of any kind.

SAT stands in solidarity with s*x workers everywhere. We call on governments, policymakers and stakeholders across Africa to accelerate rights-based reforms that put dignity, health, safety and justice first.

Happy Africa Day! 🌍

Across Africa, too many young people, especially girls and young women, still face barriers to safe sanitation, menstrual health management, and clean water access, affecting their wellbeing, safety, and opportunities. Achieving Agenda 2063 means building an Africa where every young person can grow up healthy, informed, safe, and empowered to shape their future.

This year, as we commemorate Africa Day under the African Union theme, “Assuring Sustainable Water Availability and Safe Sanitation Systems to Achieve the Goals of Agenda 2063,” we are reminded that access to clean water and safe sanitation is deeply connected to dignity, health, education, and s*xual and reproductive health rights.

Sustainable development is not only about infrastructure, it is also about people, equity, and ensuring no young person is left behind. 💧✊🏾
