In 2019, during a visit to a rural community in the state of Querétaro, we realized that comprehensive sexual and reproductive health rights (S&RHR) education was scarce and very necessary. We conducted workshops with approximately 200 adolescents which allowed us to see that our work in the area was viable. Our main purpose is to facilitate S&RHR education in collaboration with local partner schools through various workshop programs tailored to students aged 10-18 which cover topics relevant to the students' development, in addition to strengthening the knowledge on the S&RH rights. Additionally, teacher trainings to facilitate knowledge and tools for the teacher staff at the partner schools. We use a dynamic and participative approach within our work, create all materials ourselves and we strive to create a safe space for the students to ask all the questions they need. To complement the work at the schools, we run a digital communication strategy that includes relevant SoMe platforms, a podcast, a blog, informational guides, a teacher group on Facebook and a Youtube channel. This allows both teens, family members as well as teachers to continue informing themselves on relevant S&RHR topics. We facilitate S&RHR education mainly in public schools, but also some private schools who cater to low-income population.
