    • Sexual and Reproductive Health

      Having a sexual life is essential and meaningful for human beings. It is pleasant and entertaining. A healthy sexual life that is free from forceful acts, stigma and violence is a natural right of every human being. At the stage of adolescence, a young person experiences rapid physical growth and blooming of reproductive organs. Along with this growth, psychological and emotional developments like the development of feelings of love or sexual attraction towards the opposite (or same) sex, sexual desire and the aspiration to give birth may arise. It is a period that adolescents must also understand, recognize as well as mitigate risk reduction strategies and be aware of consequences of unplanned pregnancy and STIs including HIV.
