PROVEN INTERVENTION TO BE DISTRIBUTED

Sugar Daddy Awareness classes

Learn more about the Sugar Daddy Awareness Challenge and how a simple, one-hour “sugar daddy awareness” training could help countless girls avoid pregnancy while still in school, which can lead to entrenched poverty, and build a better life.

DISTRIBUTION MODEL INNOVATION

EGPATH (Empowering Girls to Prevent Adolescent Teen Pregnancy and HIV) is a start-up initiative based in Mbale city that envisions a world where every adolescent girl, particularly those aged 13 - 19, is empowered to take charge of her future, equipped with the knowledge and resources to make informed decisions about her sexual health.

EGPATH’s primary distribution unit is its network of trained facilitators within schools. These facilitators are responsible for delivering the Sugar Daddy Awareness curriculum to students, facilitating discussions, and engaging with the community. They serve as the direct link between EGPATH and the target population, ensuring that the program reaches the students effectively. Facilitators will be selected based on their ability to engage 13-year-old girls and experience in reproductive health, HIV prevention, or youth mentorship.

Partner schools act as additional distribution units by providing classroom space, integrating sessions into timetables, and granting access to students. This ensures consistent, school-based delivery, while collaboration with local education and health offices builds community ownership and sustainability.
Through this model, EGPATH can scale efficiently: starting with two schools in Mbale, expanding to eight schools across three districts in the first year, and reaching over 150,000 students in the Bugisu region within five years.

Daniel Kasansula provides strategic leadership, builds partnerships, secures funding, and oversees project implementation. With extensive experience leading large-scale adolescent health programs, he brings the expertise, vision, and determination to ensure EGPATH’s impact is measurable and sustainable.

Belinda Achom manages daily operations, coordinates trainings, oversees logistics, supervises facilitators, leads research and development efforts and ensures effective communication and reporting. Her organizational skills and hands-on approach ensure that programs run efficiently while maintaining a personal connection with the communities we serve.

PILOT AND SCALING GOALS

• Reach 350 adolescent girls.

• Deliver one-hour sessions to all targeted girls in the pilot schools.

• Raise $5,000 in supplementary funding from local partners and donors during the pilot.

PROVEN INTERVENTION TO BE DISTRIBUTED

Sugar Daddy Awareness classes. 

Learn more about the Sugar Daddy Awareness Challenge and how a simple, one-hour “sugar daddy awareness” training could help countless girls avoid pregnancy while still in school, which can lead to entrenched poverty, and build a better life.

DISTRIBUTION MODEL INNOVATION

Action For Healthy Youth (ACHY) empowers young people with knowledge and skills to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted diseases and teenage pregnancies.

In Burundi, teenage pregnancy is one of the major causes of school dropout among adolescent girls. The rate of teenage pregnancy stands at up to 15% in some parts of the country. Due to poor birth outcomes of teen pregnancies, the maternal mortality among girls aged 15 to 24 is one of the highest in Burundi, representing almost the quarter (24.1%) of the overall maternal mortality. The UNFPA’s study revealed that the main authors of unintended pregnancies to teenage girls are generally older men, suggesting that young girls engage in unprotected cross-generational sexual relationships which possibly expose them to HIV infection since the prevalence of HIV/AIDS is relatively higher among older men in Burundi.

A proven solution to this challenge exists in form of “Sugar Daddy Awareness” classes. This is an educational intervention that provides teenagers with knowledge about the relative risk of dating older men. A randomized evaluation in Kenya found that this intervention was able to reduce the likelihood of pregnancy and HIV infection by 28 percent in the subsequent year. However, for this intervention to be successful, it has to be adapted to the local context. For instance, Young 1ove’s analysis indicated that younger generations in Botswana may become less fearful of exposure to HIV risk relative to the risk of getting pregnant.

During our pilot in Kayanza Province, trained young facilitators will visit grade 7, 8 and 9 young girls (normally aged around 15 years) in schools and deliver the core message that sexually partnering with older men is a risky behavior, both in terms of HIV infection and teenage pregnancies. The one-hour class will be composed of a standard 20-minute educational DVD translated into local language, followed by a short lecture and class discussion. Self-administered questionnaires will be issued before and after the training to evaluate the influence of the sugar daddy class on the young girls’ level of awareness.

Action for Healthy Youth (ACHY) is a non-profit organization founded by Ladouce Ingrid Iradukunda, a Pan African University Scholar and Dr Fernand Hakizamana, an assistant lecturer at the University of Great Lakes. They advocate for young people’s sexual and reproductive health and rights.

PILOT AND SCALING GOALS

• Reach 3,000 students during the three-month pilot

• Raise an additional $52,000 during the three-month pilot

• Reach 24,000 students by the end of year 1

DISTRIBUTION MODEL INNOVATION

As of 2011, Botswana had the second highest rate of HIV in the world. Despite numerous condom programs, free anti-retroviral drugs, national curricula emphasizing abstinence and other efforts to curb the spread of HIV, the disease remains pervasive. 

Youth Impact (who won D-Prize as “Young 1ove” before changing their name) uses a four-pronged approach to connect youth to life-saving information about HIV. First, they find HIV education programs that work. Second, they centralize materials from effective programs on the website and at headquarters in Gaborone, Botswana. Third, they disseminate with four central approaches to remain effective: top down, grass roots, mass media, and institutional. Finally, they measure impact by making HIV surveys and assessments available and helping to administer them. 

Youth Impact will scale the sugar daddy curriculum across Botswana, starting in Gaborone and selected villages, with a plan to reach 200 schools between March and May, 2014. In addition to making a suite of proven materials, they will also crunch the numbers. Their team has produced graphs from existing national HIV data in Botswana and they will supplement the sugar daddy material and make it relevant to the Botswana context. 

PILOT AND SCALING GOALS

• Reach 200 schools during the three month pilot phase

• Reach 500 schools at the end of year 1

• Conduct 2,000 sugar daddy workshops by the end of year 1

• Decrease teenage pregnancy by 40% by the end of year 2

• Decreasing HIV by 15% by the end of year 2

DISTRIBUTION MODEL INNOVATION

A proven solution to the sugar daddy problem was fond in Kenya but a a solution will fail in another location if not adapted to the correct context. Jeunes Braves will remain true to the original classes but design a program well adapted to the Togolese setting to make the program more attractive to the youth in Togo, using videos in French which have already been created. The class discussion will discuss how poverty, cross-generation relationships, and teenage pregnancy are all connected. 

The project will be implemented in two phases: a three month preliminary phase, or pilot phase, and phase two. For both phases, a three-fold strategy will be implemented: top-down, grassroots, and marketing. Jeunes Braves will train facilitators to lead the sugar daddy awareness classes. Participants will include female leaders of youth organizations. The organization will also run 10 conferences during which students will be divided into small groups for classes and workshops. 

PILOT AND SCALING GOALS

Learn more about the Sugar Daddy Awareness Challenge and how a simple, one-hour “sugar daddy awareness” training could help countless girls avoid pregnancy while still in school, which can lead to entrenched poverty, and build a better life.

 

DISTRIBUTION MODEL INNOVATION

The proven sugar daddy awareness intervention that empowers girls, the Sara Communication Initiative (SCI) developed by UNICEF, will be the cornerstone of the pilot training program in Ghana. Within the pilot, Power2Girls will distribute the curriculum in Ghana through localizing and centralizing SCI curriculum with a team of change agents who are personally motivated and have a demonstrated commitment to girls' empowerment. Power2Girls will train the change agents to maximize impact. The organization will connect with schools and grassroots organizations to deliver quality curriculum in classrooms, build a network of future change agents within schools and communities, and provide mentorship via phone, website, the network of change agents, and on-site visits. Change agents will share curriculum with local teachers via USB drives and content will be distributed to girls' phones. Paper copies of the Sara comic book will also be distributed. 

Distribution ultimately rests with students themselves who can harness the power of mobile technology and social media to spread ideas and influence cultural norms within their own communities and their country. 

The main goals are to increase awareness of the risks of sugar daddies to 100%, improve girls' confidence to say "no" to cross-generational relationships, and enhance girls' ability to think critically about challenges facing them as well as how current choices can shape the future. Power2Girls will measure and analyze results through pre- and post-assessments and provide reports for schools to show their students' progress to the Ghana Ministry of Education and the public. 

PILOT AND SCALING GOALS

• The curriculum will reach 5,000 junior high school girls in Central Ghana during the pilot

• Change agents will visit 100 schools during the pilot

• Reach 50,000 girls across 1,000 schools by the end of year 1

• Build a network of 2,000 public school teachers ready for training by the end of year 1
