Preventing Risks to Our Future

The “Know Yourself” Adolescent Reproductive Health (ARH) Communication Program was developed by the Bangladesh Center for Communication Programs (BCCP), with support from the ARH Working Group, technical assistance from the Health Communication Partnership, based at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Communication Programs (JHU.CCP) and with funding from USAID and UNICEF.

In order to promote awareness and address adolescent issues and problems, BCCP orchestrated an ARH Communication Strategy. Based on an extensive research, a set of materials on the adolescent reproductive health behavior was produced for adolescents, communities and parents. The purpose of the materials is to disseminate information, create motivation and teach life skills to deal with adolescence issues and to foster an enabling environment that promotes knowledge and service-seeking.

This pamphlet explains the male and female reproductive system, how HIV/AIDS works, using condoms, and answers questions about HIV/AIDS and STIs.
