As the political situation in Mali remains tumultous, programs such as GAIA Vaccine Foundation's Teen Peer Education program are more important than ever.
A recent report from UNICEF assesed that in 2021, 1,664 schools in Mali were closed due to insecurity. GAIA VF's Teen Peer Education program provides a safe and stable environment for teens to meet weekly. The program gives teens in the Sikoro the opportunity to learn about sexual and reproductive health and how they can protect themselves.
In 2021, 1,020 teens attended the program, the majority of which were girls (733).
With your support, GAIA VF can continue to offer this essential program. Please consider supporting our organization today.
