May Newsletter: Rooted Locally, Scaling Impact: Youth-centred Interventions for Equitable Futures

This special issue celebrates the momentum of youth-led change and sets the stage for an important moment ahead. As we prepare to unveil the YSW Strategic Plan 2026–2030, we warmly invite you to join us for the Nairobi launch—a gathering that marks the beginning of a bold, youth-centred chapter for our movement.

Inside this edition, we highlight the strengthened data skills of Community Health Promoters enhancing HIV programming, the remarkable transition of Bright Wellness Youth CBO into a registered youth-led organisation, and why responsive care is vital for improving contraception uptake. We also share Chelaa’s inspiring journey as she redefines what’s possible for young women in entrepreneurship.

These stories reflect the spirit that will shape our next five years. We hope to see you at the launch as we step forward together.
