Phase I: The aim of this project was to strengthen the movement for an increased ability of young people, especially girls and young women, to exercise their SRHR and live with dignity.
The project implementation includes an SRHR camp, which resulted in anti-stigma champions who assist the SRHR advocacy in education institutions, capacity building meetings with health care providers, a social media campaign, and communication.

Phase II: The aim is at ensuring friendly, inclusive and non-stigmatized SRHR services among youth, for the purpose of increasing knowledge on the importance of non-discriminatory SRH information and services to youth, and advocating access to Contraception (A2C), Access to Comprehensive Sexuality Education (A2CSE) and Access to Comprehensive Post Abortion Care (A2CPAC) services and information.
In December 2023, Binti Salha Foundation and Binti Makini Foundation successfully executed the End Stigma tour, a comprehensive initiative aimed at raising awareness and fostering a movement against the stigma surrounding ACSE, contraception and CPAC services in five higher learning institutions.
This impactful campaign specifically targeted to engage 500 students from higher learning institutions, namely the Institute of Social Work, Water Institute, National Institute of Transport, Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences and DUCE, in meaningful conversations to challenge and dismantle the barriers preventing open dialogue on SRH topics. The tour achieved remarkable success, resulting in the creation of over 698 champions of SRH.
