We are happy to share with you our Third Quarter Results for year 2025.
Girls Health, Wellbeing, and Protection
Awareness of sexually transmitted infections increased by 16.5 percentage points since baseline, showing that peer education under the SRHR module is effective in transferring knowledge. The ability to report GBV has also improved to 61.9 percent, demonstrating progress in response capacity. However, the small decline in reported GBV incidents from 6.5 to 5.9 percent indicates that information alone has not yet influenced community behaviors or norms. Prevention efforts remain limited because interventions have mainly targeted girls, while male attitudes and community dynamics continue to reinforce risk.
Progress of Adolescent Girls and Teenage Mothers Livelihoods and Employability
Livelihood outcomes remains a challenge. Participation in vocational training rose only slightly from 33.0 to 35.7 percent. Respondents mentioned structural barriers such as cost, limited time, and domestic responsibilities hinder them from accessing livelihood training and other opportunities. The program requires flexible schedules and financial support mechanisms to reach more beneficiaries effectively and would benefit from close monitoring and reporting.
Adolescent Girls , Education Access, Retention, and Transition
Progress in menstrual health management has been significant. School attendance during menstruation improved from 71.2 to 85.0 percent, confirming that addressing practical needs through sanitary pad provision and education leads to immediate behavioral improvement. However, early pregnancy continues to be a major obstacle, cited by 73.5 percent of respondents. This shows that the challenge extends beyond material support and needs to be addressed through continuous engagement, targeted behavioral messages, and family involvement.

Football as a Safe Space and Leadership Platform
Football continues to be a strong foundation for the MTG model. Participation increased to 88.2 percent, and 96.5 percent of respondents reported feeling safe in these spaces. Leadership engagement also improved to 52.3 percent, showing that structured football activities are building confidence and agency. The next step should be to connect these young leaders to more opportunities beyond the field, such as sports leadership training and mentorship.
Climate Change Voice and Agency
Participants are ready to take action and demonstrate ownership of environmental issues. The key challenge now is to move from interest to implementation by activating clubs, assigning leadership roles, and tracking real community impact through activities such as clean-ups, advocacy events, and awareness drives where possible.
