Youth Engagement in Ebola Prevention

By Zachery Onyango | Project Leader

Youth Engagement in Ebola Prevention

Young people are playing an increasingly important role in Ebola prevention efforts, and your support is helping harness their energy and influence.

Through youth engagement initiatives, we are empowering young leaders to become advocates for health and safety within their communities.

With your contributions, we have:

  • Engaged youth groups in awareness and prevention activities
  • Encouraged peer-to-peer education on Ebola risks and prevention
  • Supported youth-led outreach in schools and neighborhoods

As a result, young people are actively promoting hygiene practices, sharing accurate information, and encouraging their peers to adopt safer behaviors.

This peer-driven approach is proving especially effective in reaching wider audiences and reinforcing prevention messages.

Youth involvement is also helping ensure sustainability, as these young leaders continue to influence behavior beyond the immediate outbreak.

Your support is helping turn young people into powerful agents of change—protecting their communities today and strengthening resilience for the future.
