In your own words, what does contraception mean, what types are you aware of in your community, and are these options always accessible to young people when needed? #Achoiceforall #WorldContraceptionDay2025 Great Ladies Cbo TICAH_KE FEMNET

Dreams Redefined CBO-DGYG Great Ladies Cbo TICAH_KE FEMNET Contraception means choice & control over one’s body and future. Many people know pills, condoms, injectables, implants, and even emergency pills. Sadly, not all youth can access them easily...stigma, cost, & silence still lock many out. #WorldContraceptionDay Aunty Jane Hotline

Dreams Redefined CBO-DGYG Great Ladies Cbo TICAH_KE FEMNET Contraception means having the power to decide if and when to have children. It’s about control, freedom, and planning for the future. #WorldContraceptionDay

Dreams Redefined CBO-DGYG Great Ladies Cbo TICAH_KE FEMNET In my community, the most common methods I hear about are condoms, pills, the injection (Depo), implants, and natural methods like the calendar method. Some also know about IUDs and vasectomy, but they’re less talked about. #WorldContraceptionDay #Achoiceforall

Dreams Redefined CBO-DGYG Great Ladies Cbo TICAH_KE FEMNET Unfortunately, accessibility is still a challenge for many young people. Some fear stigma at health facilities, others face cost barriers, and sometimes stock-outs limit availability. #WorldContraceptionDay2025

Beyond availability, what does Real Access to contraception look like in terms of Age of Consent, Dignity, Choice, Safety, Information, and Agency for young people? #Achoiceforall #WorldContraceptionDay2025 Aunty Jane Hotline Great Ladies Cbo FEMNET TICAH_KE

Dreams Redefined CBO-DGYG Aunty Jane Hotline Great Ladies Cbo FEMNET TICAH_KE Real access means more than stock on shelves. It’s confidential, judgment-free, safe, affordable...where young people get accurate info, make their own choices, and are treated with respect. Agency & dignity must come first #WorldContraceptionDay2025 FEMNET Aunty Jane Hotline

Dreams Redefined CBO-DGYG Aunty Jane Hotline Great Ladies Cbo FEMNET TICAH_KE Real access means young people are not turned away at health facilities because of their age. It should respect their right to health regardless of age of consent debates. #WorldContraceptionDay

Dreams Redefined CBO-DGYG Aunty Jane Hotline Great Ladies Cbo FEMNET TICAH_KE Safety means contraceptives should be medically safe, high-quality, and provided by trained professionals who respect privacy. #WorldContraceptionDay

Do parental and spousal consent requirements, religion, and Culture affect young people’s ability to access contraception, and should these barriers exist at all?#Achoiceforall #WorldContraceptionDay2025 Aunty Jane Hotline Great Ladies Cbo

How can we shift the perception of contraception from being seen only as a women’s issue to a shared responsibility where boys and young men are equally engaged and accountable? #Achoiceforall #Options #WorldContraceptionDay2025 Aunty Jane Hotline Great Ladies Cbo

Are public facilities fully stocked with all contraceptive options? Do govt plans & public participation reflect these needs? What gaps remain, and how can we ensure consistent access for young people? #Achoiceforall #WorldContraceptionDay2025 Aunty Jane Hotline Great Ladies Cbo

What strategies are needed to ensure contraceptive access is equitable & reaches marginalized groups like young women with disabilities, those out of school, or living in the rural and informal settlements? #WorldContraceptionDay #BongaNaAuntyJane Aunty Jane Hotline @GreatLadiesCBO

Schools, churches, dialogues & digital spaces shape views on contraception yet myths & stigma still block youth access. What actions can these spaces take in 1–3 yrs to normalize use & create safe, supportive choices for young people? Aunty Jane Hotline @GreatLadiesCBO

Kenya’s ASRH Policy (2015) & Adolescent-Friendly Services Guidelines (2016) promise better youth contraceptive access—but stock-outs,stigma & consent barriers remain. What steps should gov’t & partners take to ensure full implementation across all counties, incl. Kisumu? #WCD2025
