Radio Sensitization

In July 2020, LifeAgain also embarked on a radio sensitization of the public where we visited six (6) radio stations in the Upper West region to talk about teenage pregnancy. We discussed the causes and effects of teenage pregnancy on a teenage girl and cautioned girls to focus on empowering themselves by either going to school or learning a vocation in their teen age rather than indulging themselves in relationships that can result to teenage pregnancy. We also urged parents to avoid the practice of marrying off their teenage girls once they become pregnant and rather support them to go back to school to attain a higher education or to learn a vocation from which they can earn a living from. We had some of our beneficiaries with us who shared their stories and the hardships they went through after becoming pregnant and advised girls of their age to focus on their education in order not to experience the hardships they experienced.
