The Better Life Options Program for Adolescent Boys in India

CEDPA's global Better Life Options Program was established to promote opportunities for girls and young women to make better life choices concerning their health, economic status, civic participation, education, employment, decision making abilities and family planning. The need for a similar empowerment program for adolescent boys, to effectively challenge gender inequalities, was expressed by the communities and by the boys themselves in the areas that Better Life Options Program was implemented. This booklet describes how this program was developed in India, the implementation process used and the impact felt within the participating communities.
