Generation Equality Strategic Plan with and for Girls and Youth
The Generation Equality process is an opportunity to build momentum and commitment with adolescent girls and young people to shape the feminist future we want to see as a result of the 25th anniversary of the Beijing Platform for Action. Girls, adolescents and young women in all their diversity are leading the way in the fight for racial, gender and climate justice.

Adolescent Girls and COVID-19:Mapping the evidence on interventions
With the COVID-19 crisis continuing to evolve, evidence on the effectiveness of short-term emergency-oriented responses and long-term mitigation strategies is expanding but still limited.

More evidence is needed to slow the risks posed by the pandemic for this sub-population, which can help guide gender- and age-responsive prevention and impact mitigation investments. Evidence from approaches delivered in other unstable contexts may offer important lessons for decision-making in the current context. Recognizing this, Population Council conducted a structured review (under the auspices of the AGIP) of existing evidence collected prior to the pandemic, across low- and middle-income country contexts.
