Catching Up with the 2015 World Contraception Day Ambassadors – Women Deliver

The World Contraception Day Ambassadors Project — a partnership between Women Deliver and Bayer — equips young people with the skills they need to collect and share digital stories about young people’s sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), particularly access to contraception in their home countries. The project includes a storytelling and digital media training, a $5,000 seed grant, and advocacy opportunities for the Ambassadors to showcase their work at the international level. This project is fostering the next generation of champions for SRHR by creating more opportunities for youth advocates to share their stories, ideas, and expertise, the project raises awareness of young people’s perspectives and needs.

On 28 July, 2016 we caught up with five of the six ambassadors to talk about lessons learned, and advice they have for the 2016 World Contraception Day Ambassadors
(to be announced on International Youth Day, 12 August). You can watch the video below, or visit wcdambassadors.com to learn more about them and their projects.
