Early adolescence (10–14 years) is characterised by rapid physical, psychological, and social changes that require
accurate, age-appropriate, and culturally adapted Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) education to support healthy development and prevent harmful practices. In South Asia, adolescentsʼ access to SRH information remains limited due to sociocultural taboos, limited parent-child communication, inadequate school-based SRH education, and insufficient adolescent-friendly health services. Consequently, many adolescents rely on peers, social media, and other unreliable sources for SRH information, increasing their vulnerability to misinformation and adverse health and social outcomes.
