Roughly one-quarter of the world’s population is made up of young people. Investing in adolescents results in stronger, more resilient communities and is critical to achieving positive demographic, economic and health outcomes around the globe. However, young people often face barriers in accessing accurate, reliable health information.

To address these challenges, USAID seeks unique solutions to provide health information and support for healthy behaviors in a way that is accessible to adolescents. The Agency is particularly interested in solutions that directly reach adolescents in multiple country settings and/or adolescents’ support networks (such as families and communities) as appropriate.
