pregnancy and presented to another group of teenagers and supportive adults during a 2-day interactive “Imagine Workshop” in October 2019. Participants created simple, low-tech prototypes of five prioritized solutions, which were then rapidly tested by the team from USAID’s ReachHealth project with over 140 individuals in Tanauan City and Davao City. These five solutions are #TheBestICanBe Movement, Digital Resource, #SoConnected, Teen Terminal, and Teen Fest which emerged as viable interventions with support from teenagers, adults, community leaders, and other key stakeholders. • • Bangsamoro Youth Transition Priority Agenda. The Bangsamoro Youth Commission (BYC), with support from UNFPA, developed the Bangsamoro Youth Transition Priority Agenda (2019-2020), which is the BARMM’s regional translation of the Philippine Youth Development Plan (2017-2019). The Bangsamoro Youth Transition Priority Agenda (BYTPA) highlights health as one of the core pillars for youth participation. It also underscores the need for BARMM youth to participate in multi-sectoral and inclusive programs, projects and activities that promote youth health and well-being and reduce their sexual and reproductive health risks and nonsexual risk taking behaviors. Study on the Filipino Child. On the area of data and generation of evidence to strengthen the responsiveness of impact of development policies, programs and initiatives, UNFPA provided substantial technical and financial support to the Government-led 15-year Longitudinal Cohort Study on the Filipino Child. The study has completed the third wave of data collection in 2019 and was able to provide DOH with data related to adolescent pregnancy. Data from the Cohort Study showed significant correlation between adolescent pregnancy and poor socioeconomic, health and education outcomes of both the mother and the index child, where index children born from mothers 15 to 19 years old were almost 45 percent less likely to be in school compared to those born from mothers aged 20 to 35. Capacity Building • Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) Resource Materials. With support from the UNFPA and CHSI, DepEd conducted a workshop to develop teaching and learning modules on Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE). The resource materials included Detailed Lesson Plans (DLPs) for teachers integrating CSE key concepts and messages to the different learning areas. DepEd subjected the DLPs to field validation in selected elementary and secondary schools in Regions I, III, CALABARZON and NCR to ensure alignment of content, objectives, age and development appropriateness and development of life skills. DepEd also conducted a consultative forum on CSE, providing an avenue for national, regional and division coordinators and development partners to share their good practices on ARH Education/CSE; learn about new options, researches and latest innovations in ARH/CSE; determine roles and actions of DepEd and partner agencies to expedite the implementation of ARH Education/CSE; share relevant government efforts on ARH Education/CSE; and discuss relevant ARH/ CSE legislative and policy initiatives; and recommend viable actions to advance ARH Education/CSE in the country`. Moreover, DepEd, with UNFPA, is developing a multi-year Costed Implementation Plan (CIP) identifying the activities to be undertaken, timelines, and responsible persons/entities that will implement the CIP for five years; and a CSE M&E Framework. This Plan details DepEd’s strategies and key interventions and actions for CSE integration in the curriculum. The CIP defines the priorities for strategic actions; identify the activities and inputs needed to achieve them; and estimates the costs associated with each as a basis for budgeting and mobilizing resources required for implementation at different levels of organizations and institutions over a five-year period. The CIP also identifies the gaps which can be addressed through partnerships with 69 2019 Annual Report Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012
