Abstract
The youth of any nation are its greatest asset, and by empowering them, especially adolescents, we lay the foundation for progress and meaningful transformation in any nation. In Pakistan, where a large segment of the population comprises of young people, investing in their health, education, and well-being is not just important, it is essential. Recognizing this, numerous universities, forums, and organizations across the country are actively working to educate and support adolescent girls in reproductive health related challenges. These initiatives address critical gaps in awareness, access, and education.
