The GUSO programme is anchored by the following core principles: structural and meaningful participation of young people inclusiveness positive and rights based approach gender transformative approach and programming and sustainability. Discussions at different levels within GUSO subsequently led to a redefining of the strategy of youth movement building. Create an enabling environment for support to young people’s SRHR at community, district, regional and national levels through various forms of engagements, lobbying, advocacy, etc. The GUSO mid-term report of July 2018 showed that the work of youth movement building remained behind in most of the GUSO countries and not much progress under this strategy was being made.Increase access to and utilization of quality and YF SRHR services by young people.Increase access to and utilization of quality SRHR information/education (CSE) by young people.We believe that to be able to realise our outcomes and reach our overall objective, we need to develop strategies to comprehensively address three key components that influence young people SRHR using a multi-component approach to link them. Improved socio-cultural, political and legal environment for gender-sensitive, youth-friendly SRHR.Increased utilization of quality and youth-friendly SRHR services that respond to the needs and rights of all young people.Increased utilization of comprehensive SRHR information and education by all young people.Empowered young people increasingly voice their rights.
But first we want to realise the following outcomes through which the overall objective will be achieved. Overall, we want to ensure that all young people especially girls and young women, are empowered to realize their Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) in societies that are positive towards young people’s sexuality. What do we want – Overall Objective and Outcomes The geographical areas where the GUSO Programme is being implemented are in four (4) districts (Tamale Metro, Sagnerigu, Gushegu and East Mamprusi) in the Northern region and two districts (Bolgatanga Municipal and Talensi district) in the Upper East region. Young people in the age group 10-24, including underserved categories of young people living with HIV (YPLHIV), young LGBT, young mothers, physically challenged young people, hard-to-reach youth in remote areas and young people in the age group 10-16 years in particular. The environment for young people’s SRHR is relatively conservative fuels negative cultural/religious beliefs and practices which reinforce undesirable social norms, taboos, low status/self-esteem of girls and women and misconceptions on young people’s sexuality, leading to STIs, unintended pregnancies, unsafe abortions and sexual and gender based violence. Majority of these young people do not realize their SRHR needs and their right to participate in decisions that affect them due to restrictions at societal, institutional and political levels.
In Ghana, young people aged 10-24 years constitute about 32% of the country’s population according to 2010 Population and Housing Census. These Organizations include Rutgers, IPPF, Simavi, dance4life, CHOICE and aidsfonds.
These are Planned Parenthood Association of Ghana (PPAG), Hope for Future Generations (HFFG), Savanna Signatures, NORSAAC, Presbyterian Health Services-North (PHS-N) and Curious Minds The GUSO programme is being funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs through a Consortium of International Organizations based in the Netherlands and UK. Lato and guso are pretty light, so they are usually enjoyed as an appetizer or side dish.The Alliance is currently implementing a five year SRHR programme (2016 – 2020) called “Get Up Speak Out” (GUSO) Programme target at young people between the ages of 10 – 24 years Six out of the eight Alliance members are implementing the GUSO programme in Ghana. These are all harmoniously united by the sourness of vinegar, and there you have it – delicious dish with depth and flavor! The distinct saltiness of the seaweeds, along with its unique constitution, is combined with the slight sweetness of tomatoes, the tang of onions, the kick and earthiness of garlic, and the spice of chilis to create a wonderfully exciting palette of flavors. Eaten raw, they are watery and mildly salty and people often refer to them as “tasting like the ocean”. The signature popping of lato is many people’s favorite, same with the characteristic crunchiness of guso. Their pleasant textures also undoubtedly add to why they’re both so famous among Cebuanos.
