Through ten years of project activity, CEDPA/Egypt supported 365 Egyptian nongovernmental organizations and youth centers in developing and implementing innovative life skills and reproductive health non-formal education courses for youth. Program impact was enhanced by integrating these courses with a broad array of supporting interventions, including community mobilization and advocacy with local civic and religious leaders. Implemented in 21 governorates, the project provided education and training to 125,000 people. Key outcomes include: breaking the silence on sensitive issues affecting women, energizing local nongovernmental organizations and activating youth as community assets.
