“Prevention does not begin with punishment. It begins with trust.”
J.Y. Robert Hungley, GOSK — Vice-President of the Republic of Mauritius
01
A Space of Their Own
MauZen opens in Port Louis: free, confidential medical consultations, psychological support and HIV testing for young people — no judgement, no fees, no waiting for a crisis.
02
GenZee, Always Awake
A chatbot companion available 24 hours a day, answering in Kreol and English — because the questions young people are afraid to ask out loud still deserve answers.
03
Peer Educators on the Ground
Trusted young figures in their own communities, carrying prevention and sexual and reproductive health education where institutions alone cannot reach.
04
A Partnership That Delivers
Three years of collaboration between MFPWA, the European Union and the IPPF — saluted by the Vice-President as proof of what sustained commitment can build.
