Enhancing access to comprehensive sexual education and reproductive health services is important for vulnerable rural youth, who often experience feelings of isolation and neglect.

In response to this need, the Karas Arts and Dance Academy and the Ministry of Sport, Youth, and National Service have organised a one-week workshop at Keetmanshoop aimed at providing essential information to 20 rural youth regarding adolescent sexual and reproductive health and rights.

Twenty participants, mostly from rural areas in the ||Kharas Region, are taking part in the training.

The workshop covers emotional and social well-being, mental health, and emotional intelligence topics.
