Apply for 3rd National E-Course (Pakistan)

Deadline: 10-Sep-23

YPEER Pakistan together with YPEER Asia Pacific Center and Institute for Social and Youth Development (ISYD) are going to conduct the 3rd National E-course on Peer Education and Reproductive Health and Rights.

The e-course will provide information about sexual and reproductive health and rights for young advocates and activists promoting young populations’ rights and empowerment, especially at national and local levels. This e-course also intends to fill the gaps in missed opportunities resulting from several societal challenges, aiming to provide young people with an alternative platform to continue building their expertise in SRHR and to exchange ideas and network with fellow youth advocates.

The self-paced e-courses will provide more flexibility to organizers, facilitators and participants allowing participants to go through materials in their free time. Moreover, e-courses can serve as platforms to build young people’s capacities as youth advocates and can go beyond simply building knowledge in sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) to addressing advocacy and leadership skills.

Class 1: Understanding Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights
Class 2: Family Planning & Safe Practices
Class 3: Menstrual Hygiene Management
