SRHR Programs in Community

At GURD-Rwanda, promoting Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) is central to our mission of empowering girls and young women, especially from vulnerable communities. We create safe spaces where girls learn about their bodies, challenge harmful norms, and make informed health decisions.
