Background
Young people matter. The 1.8 billion youth alive today are the
shapers and leaders of our global future, but their issues are often
overlooked. Investing in young people’s sexual and reproductive
health and rights is essential to enable well-informed choices about
relationships, sexuality and having children. Countries that invest in
young people will have more educated and healthy populations, more
productive workforces, growing economies and falling fertility rates.
Providing accurate and comprehensive sexuality education is a
condition to enable developing countries to reap the benefits of
the demographic dividend.
