Case study

Brave classrooms: the 2026 campaign.

1 April to 10 June 2026 · Bugweri and Mayuge districts

Teenage pregnancy drives school dropout, health risks for young mothers and long cycles of poverty in Eastern Uganda, and many adolescents have never had accurate information. We ran interactive workshops on its dangers, causes and effects, and evaluated them with surveys, group discussions and facilitator observation.

  • Students engaged actively; many had never had this information before
  • Teachers saw students become more open about reproductive health
  • A taboo subject became a conversation

“Before this workshop, I did not know how to protect myself or how to make good decisions. Now I understand the risks and I can talk to my friends about it.”
Student, Busembatia Secondary School
“I learned that teenage pregnancy can end my education. I want to finish school and become a teacher.”
Student, Kigandalo Senior Secondary School
“This campaign opened a door for our students. They are asking questions they were afraid to ask before. We hope this continues.”

What we learned

Lessons we are taking forward.

Schools are an effective way in to reach teenagers.

Interactive workshops beat lectures.

One-off campaigns need follow-up to change behaviour, so we will add follow-up sessions and pre- and post-surveys.

Better cost tracking and a cloud photo library will let us report even more clearly.
