Growing up GREAT! Girls’ and Boys’ Flipbooks

These flipbooks provide Very Young Adolescent (VYA) boys and girls (10-14 years) with information about puberty, gender equality, healthy relationships, violence, and other related themes during weekly club sessions. It is part of the Growing Up Great! toolkit, which uses a socio-ecological approach with an age-appropriate, gender transformative intervention package to provide in- and out-of-school VYA girls and boys with accurate information about sexual and reproductive health (SRH), and foster discussion about related social norms. Growing Up GREAT! was adapted from the GREAT Project toolkit and incorporates elements of Choices, Voices, Promises and GrowUp Smart, a sexuality education curriculum for VYAs. It was piloted in Democratic Republic of the Congo in 2017-2018 under the Passages Project and is now being scaled up in Kinshasa (2019). These flipbooks can serve as a resource for program implementers.
