SAfAIDS Transforming Lives SHARP 2023-2026 SAfAIDS Transforming Lives SHARP 2023-2026 SAfAIDS Transforming Lives SHARP 2023-2026 expected impact is adolescents and young people (AYP), and vulnerable adolescent girls and young women (AGYW), are accessing youth-centred SRH services and have improved SRH outcomes in the SADC region, by 2026 and beyond.

The impact will be a result of achieving four outcomes:

Outcome 1: SADC Member States domesticating Regional Guidelines on Sexual Violence Response among AYP in the SADC region. 

Outcome 2: SADC Member States implementing the Regional Roadmap to Prevent Unsafe Abortion and Early and Unintended Pregnancy (EUP) among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in the SADC region. 

Outcome 3: Adolescents and young people (AYP) utilising Social Accountability Monitoring (SAM) to advocate for youth-centred and gender-responsive SRH services in the SADC region. 

Outcome 4: Key actors and partners engaged in Regional Knowledge Exchange and Learning on SGBV, Safe Abortion, EUP and Social Accountability responses for AYP in the SADC region. 

The geographic focus of the regional programme is all of the 16 SADC countries, though with specific country-based activities in  Eswatini, Lesotho, Malawi, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Det övergripande målet i SAfAIDS Transforming Lives 2023-2026 är att ungdomar, utsatta tonårsflickor och unga kvinnor har tillgång till ungdomscentrerade SRH-tjänster och SRHR i SADC-regionen. Förändringsteorin har fyra delmål för att uppnå det övergripande objektivet;

1: SADCs medlemsstater integrerar de regionala riktlinjerna mot sexuellt våld bland ungdomar i SADC-regionen

2: SADCs medlemsstater implementerar regionala riktlinjer för att förhindra osäkra aborter och tidiga och oönskade graviditeter bland tonårsflickor och unga kvinnor i SADC-regionen.

3: Ungdomar använder socialt ansvarsutkrävande (social accountability monitoring) för att förespråka ungdomscentrerade och jämställdhetsmedvetna SRH-tjänster i SADC-regionen

4: Nyckelaktörer och partners deltar i regionala kunskapsutbyten och lärande om sexuellt våld, säker abort, tidiga och oönskade graviditeter samt socialt ansvarsutkrävande för ungdomar i SADC-regionen.

SAfAIDS fokuserar på SADC-medlemsstater när det gäller policyreform och påverkansarbete; När det gäller socialt ansvarsutkrävande fokuserar SAfAIDS på sex länder; Eswatini, Lesotho, Malawi, Sydafrika, Zambia och Zimbabwe. The Transforming Lives SHARP Programme's expected impact is adolescents and young people, and vulnerable adolescent girls and young women, are accessing youth-centred sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services and have improved SRH outcomes in the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region, by 2026 and beyond.

The impact will be a result of achieving four outcomes:

Outcome 1: SADC Member States domesticating Regional Guidelines on Sexual Violence Response among adolescents and young people in the SADC region.  Outcome 1 will be achieved through four Outputs:

- Member States develop Domestication Plans for the Regional Guidelines on sexual gender-based violence (SGBV) Response among adolescents and young people, which will be tracked using Barometers

- A coalition of policy-makers in a "ZeroSGBV4Africa Think-Tank" will be established to analyse Regional Barometers on Domestication Progress, in line with Domestication Plans made by Member States, and make recommendations for accelerating domestication. This analysis will be done through a gender lens.

- Policy-makers in the region will be capacitated to apply gender norms transformation (GNT) in policy decisions on SRHR of adolescents and young people, including vulnerable adolescent girls and young women

- Evidence generated on the SGBV and gender norms transformation policy environment for adolescents and young people, through a regional rapid assessment

Outcome 2: SADC Member States implementing the Regional Roadmap to Prevent Unsafe Abortion and Early and Unintended Pregnancy (EUP) among adolescent girls and young women in the SADC region. Outcome 2 will be achieved through four Outputs:

- Policy-makers, Traditional and Religious Leader Champions advocate for a resilient safe abortion and EUP prevention policy environment

- Parliamentarians reach consensus on SADC Safe Abortion Model Law, informed by regional rapid assessment on safe abortion policy status

- Policy-makers actively participating in Regional My Choice, Our Choice Campaign to end unsafe abortion among adolescent girls and young women in SADC

- Evidence generated on capacity gaps in resilience and countering SRHR-opposition (safe abortion, EUP, comprehensive sexuality education) among regional actors through a regional rapid capacity assessment

Outcome 3: Adolescents and young people utilising Social Accountability Monitoring (SAM) to advocate for youth-centred and gender-responsive SRH services in the SADC region. Outcome 3 will be achieved through four Outputs:

- Advocating SADC Ministries of Health and other partners to buy-in to adopting and transitioning of SAM4SRHR Model and MobiSAfAIDS App, as a digital health working approach, to benefit adolescents and young people;

- Adolescents and young people-led CSOs and service providers and policy-makers applying SAM to remove barriers to SRH service provision for adolescents and young people;

- Capacitating Adolescents and young people-led CSOs in Information Communication Technology (ICT) to advocate to policy-makers on increasing digital health uptake in SRHR service delivery mechanisms; and

- Capacitating CSOs working with vulnerable adolescent girls and young women and networks of adolescent boys and young men, in resilience and gender norms transformation to sustain their regional policy advocacy work.

Outcome 4: Key actors and partners engaged in Regional Knowledge Exchange and Learning on SGBV, Safe Abortion, EUP and Social Accountability responses for Adolescents and young people in the SADC region. Outcome 4 will be achieved through three Outputs:

- Regional knowledge exchange and learning Symposia on Resilient Sustained Regional SGBV, Safe Abortion and EUP Responses;

- Documenting and sharing good practices, human interest and most significant change stories at regional policy advocacy platforms; and

- Generating innovative and indigenous knowledge products for regional advocacy, which are informed by a Regional Thought-leadership Reference Group on SGBV, Safe abortion and EUP.
