Preventing Teen Pregnancy and School Drop-out
Art Medium: Mural
Partner: Club Rafiki Youth Friendly
Location: Kigali, Rwanda
Artist: Jemima Kakizy
The Rafiki girls club identified teenage pregnancies and school dropout amongst adolescent girls as pressing issues in their school. With the support of a local mural artist, they led a workshop to reflect on the impact these issues have in their communities. They painted a mural to illustrate the root causes of teen pregnancy and how it affects girls.
​
Family and community members attended an opening event and made public commitments afterwards to encourage girls to stay in school and to educate girls on sexual and reproductive health.
