FREETOWN, Sierra Leone, 24 January 2022-As part of the Global Programme to End Child Marriage, the CO on 24 January, handed over 97 electronic tablets to two organizations, Restless Development and Women in Crisis Movement, which were uploaded with recorded sessions on quality health information and life skills education. The devices enabled interactive sessions and were an innovative way of reaching adolescent girls with information on these issues.

The donated tablets were made possible with funding support by Irish Aid.  UNFPA is working with these two organizations in Kambia, Pujehun and Koinadugu districts to increase access to quality health information and services, education and life skills for adolescent girls through sessions held in safe spaces.
