View knowledge product

The primary aim of this project was to enable a cohort of 60 adolescents from marginalized communities. Their pivotal role was to review and provide inputs to the National Plan of Action on Adolescent Health Strategy 2017-2030 by fostering a deeper understanding and bolstering their confidence. Beyond this, there was a concerted effort to champion the representation and active participation of this demographic within the aforementioned plan through advocacy endeavours.

This culminated in the development of three knowledge products created to fortify Bangladesh’s strategy in adolescent health. These products stand as a testament to the dedication and expertise contributed by these adolescents, amplifying their voices and paving the way for a more inclusive and comprehensive approach to adolescent health in the nation. All products can be downloaded below.
