Tatenda Maposa

Zimbabwe

Tatenda Maposa is a Zimbabwean youth advocate, feminist and human rights defender. I am a bachelor’s degree and vying towards a research master’s degree in Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights with Netherlands Business School. I am working as the founding and executive director for a community youth-led organization by the name Girl Child Empowerment of Zimbabwe. The organization is committed to expanding the evidence-based on the importance of addressing socio-cultural barriers including intimate partner violence, stigma and partner involvement- when striving to meet women’s demand for reproductive control and use of the family planning services. I also coordinate Girl Child Clubs across a number of universities in Zimbabwe. I am part of the African regional youth secretariat for a movement on Universal Health Coverage under Amref International and Youth In Action. As a women rights defender which are also human rights, I advocate and aim to expand the evidence-based, linking young girls’ and women’s social and economic empowerment to family planning and sexual and reproductive health rights. I also advocate for the full strengthening of the connection between adolescents’ girls’ education and SRHR outcomes, including delayed marriage, gender-based violence and childbearing. As a youth advocate, I believe that this fellowship will equip me with advocacy and accountability skills on family planning issues and universal health coverage.
