Advocacy for Universal Access for Youth

To achieve the goal of universal access, we provide support for:

• Organizations that most effectively advocate for comprehensive sexual and reproductive health funding, policies and programs for youth around the world, and
• Targeted efforts to train and support young leaders who can advocate effectively for comprehensive sexual and reproductive health programs and policies for young people around the world.

All of our advocacy grantees must be able to articulate clearly and specifically how their work will move the world closer toward the goal of universal access by young people.

With Summit support, the World Health Organization has identified a set of indicators to measure access to health services for young people for preventing HIV and improving sexual and reproductive health. These measures are helping us to track global progress toward the goal of universal access. Our hope is that others working on these issues will similarly find these indicators helpful. With that in mind, we have condensed WHO’s documents into a brief fact sheet that we encourage you to use and share.
