My Body, My Life, My World puts young people at the centre of UNFPA’s work, recognizing their right to make informed choices about their own bodies, their own lives and the world they live in. In 2022 UNFPA is publishing an Operational Guidance on the strategy for the staff of Country and Regional Offices and UNFPA Headquarters.
The index is an advocacy tool to help national policymakers and programme managers measure progress on youth empowerment in six domains: sexual and reproductive health, gender and autonomy, educational empowerment, economic empowerment, youth policy and political participation, and safety and security.
