Strategic Focus > Adolescents
FPA Sri Lanka has worked to promote the interests of young people for more than three decades. We have pioneered Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) education in and outside schools since the early nineties. Our focus is strongly youth-centered in all aspects ranging from programs, planning, designing, implementing, monitoring and evaluating. The fact that a considerable number of our grass- root volunteers are young people speaks of the Association as a force which actively involves youth in promoting SRH awareness.

Youth Activities:
  • Awareness creation workshops and other related activities for youth are carried out in line with the "Adolescence" theme of the strategic framework of Sri Lanka.
  • A selected team of youth completed an internship period with People Living With HIV/AIDS (PLWA) community (Lanka +) and used the Self Inquiry tool developed by the South Asia Regional Office (SARO/IPPF) to document their experience.
  • An event was organized to celebrate International Youth Day
