This innovation will directly contribute to the realization of the national adolescent health strategy and generate more demand among adolescents to access relevant health and SRH services in their communities.

Users can ask questions on various SRHR topics, explore tools for advocacy, locate service providers, and access helpline numbers. Kaleidoscope will provide a safe and confidential space for young people to explore their choices on an encrypted platform.

Many youth <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">non governmental organizations are beginning to advocate for family planning and reproductive health services using social accountability, but have been unsuccessful due to the lack of data-sharing platforms and complex digital solutions that cannot be scaled. The Data4Youth Accountability Hub (D4Y-AH) is a digital tool that aims to solve this issue through delivering youth-led social accountability for sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). The dashboard consists of: 1) a data tool youth can use to map out SRHR issues, and connect them to existing policy frameworks, 2) an Android app that collects SRHR data from local clinics in Kenya, and 3) a data tool that youth can use to analyze country-wide SRHR data.

SRH stakeholders, in turn, need evidence-based information to ensure they design and implement relevant interventions that address the actual risk-taking behaviors of youth, but they currently lack this type of data. The Frisky app solves both problems. Currently downloaded by more than 3,000 youth aged 15-29, the Frisky app enables young people to assess their sexual health risks by receiving tailored information based on their answers to a series of questions and links them to trained youth counselors for additional information. Education as a Vaccine is seeking funding to increase awareness about the app at college campuses while also analyzing the sexual risk-taking data from the app and synthesizing it for program managers and decision makers to inform the development of program interventions. Through the scale up of Frisky, accurate information will be placed into the hands of young people to dispel SRH myths and misconceptions and programs can be designed based on the needs of youth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Education as a Vaccine is a women-led, youth-focused organization that works to advance the health and rights of adolescents and young people through technology.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_separator wpb_content_element vc_separator_align_center vc_sep_border_width_1 vc_sep_pos_align_center vc_separator_no_text wpb_content_element  wpb_content_element\"   style=\"width: 100%;\"><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_l\"><span class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_r\"><span class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\" ><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-3\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_left wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-9\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p><b>Innovation: Youth Alliance of Knowledge Champions to Share their FP\/RH Stories<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Organization: Artivism Academy<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Country: Pakistan<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Access to family planning and reproductive health (FP\/RH) information among youth is a challenge in Pakistan due to cultural taboos.

The youth champions will also share their stories related to menstrual hygiene, youth-friendly health services, gender-based violence, and other FP\/RH topics with other young people through interactive storytelling sessions.

Much of this disparity is due to the reduction in funding for family planning programs in the country, and the absence of understandable adolescent and youth sexual and reproductive health (AYSRH) data for government officials. The Talent Youth Association seeks to combat this issue by developing fact sheets on AYSRH and FP in Amharic using data from the Ministry of Health and the Guttmacher Institute. Their innovation will also include organizing a high-level discussion forum with youth representatives, men, women, and youth with disabilities, from different organizations to discuss this data, and work to resolve AYSRH issues. The forum will demonstrate the importance of regular discussions between young people, program implementers, and decision makers, with the intention of establishing a quarterly roundtable discussion between government committee members, AYSRH\/FP practitioners, and young people to share data, research, and learning from program implementation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Talent Youth Association is a youth-led organization that empowers and promotes access to sexual and reproductive health, family planning, advocacy, and meaningful youth participation in Ethiopia. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_separator wpb_content_element vc_separator_align_center vc_sep_border_width_1 vc_sep_pos_align_center vc_separator_no_text wpb_content_element  wpb_content_element\"   style=\"width: 100%;\"><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_l\"><span class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span><span class=\"vc_sep_holder vc_sep_holder_r\"><span class=\"vc_sep_line\"><\/span><\/span>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\" ><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Guidelines and Frequently Asked Questions<\/h3>\n<p>For additional information on this season&#8217;s theme and information on the competition selection and award process, please view the documents listed below.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/knowledgesuccess.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/The-Pitch-Season-3-Competition-Guidelines-updated.pdf\">The Pitch Season 3 Guidelines (English)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/knowledgesuccess.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/The-Pitch-Season-3-Guidelines_French-updated.docx.pdf\">The Pitch Directives Pour La Saison 3 (en fran\u00e7ais)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/knowledgesuccess.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/The-Pitch-Season-3-FAQs-English-updated.pdf\">Season 3 Frequently Asked Questions \/ FAQs (English)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/knowledgesuccess.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/The-Pitch-Season-3-FAQ_FRENCH-updated.docx-1.pdf\">Questions fr\u00e9quemment pos\u00e9es sur la saison 3 (en fran\u00e7ais)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><section class=\"vc_section vc_section-o-content-top vc_section-flex\"><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\" ><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<h3>View Past Seasons<\/h3>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_inner vc_row-fluid\" ><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_left wpb_content_element\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-8\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h3>The Pitch Season 2<\/h3>\n<p>Our Season 2 finalists included Projet Jeune Leader (Madagascar), Save the Children Kenya, Strong Enough Girls Empowerment Initiative (Nigeria and Niger), Blind Youth Association Nepal, and Population Foundation of India.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want to read about their winning innovations?
