Season 1 - Episode 1: Improving lives of adolescent girls and young women

In east and southern Africa, young women continue to be disproportionately at risk of HIV infection and other sexual and reproductive health challenges. There is an urgent need to scale-up well-designed and effective programmes that meet the sexual and reproductive health and HIV-related needs of young women in the region. In this episode our guest, UNICEF Associate Director of HIV/AIDS Anurita Bains, unpacks practical steps that programme implementers can use to integrate key guidance to improve the quality and delivery of programmes for adolescent girls and young women.
