Teens are loud & clear on unintended pregnancy 📢 SAT’s survey of 2,555 youth in 5 countries shows the real driver isn’t “promiscuity, it’s knowledge gaps & fear of contraception (23%). Young people face silence, stigma & misinformation. #TeenagePregnancy #SRHR #ProtectGirls – at Johannesburg, South Africa

RSA can’t protect young people with fragmented data. We need ONE national digital identity system that follows every child from birth — across health, school, safety & support — so no teen ever disappears between departments. 1 Teen. 1 Life. 1 Identity. #ProtectGirls #MyOneID

Yesterday Deputy Minister Letsike named the truth: Adolescent pregnancy is a national crisis driven by poverty, power, patriarchy and silence — not individual choices. A clear message: Girls aren’t falling pregnant alone. Men must confront men, & systems must protect every girl.

South Africa can’t fix teen pregnancy with fragmented data. Teens fall through the cracks because systems don’t talk to each other. We need a national, unified digital profile for every young person — so no girl is ever lost, overlooked or left behind. #AdolescentPregnancyIndaba

💜We stand united to say NO to GBV. This year’s theme, “UNiTE to End Digital Violence Against All Women and Girls,” reminds us safety online matters. 𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐞 & 𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐢𝐜/𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐬 #16DaysOfActivism – at Clayville, South Africa
