Yes, this is the reality of what our 15 to 24 year olds are influenced by and practice. Through this App, UNFPA has created the framework, but a principal stakeholder- the Ministry of Education- must consider giving this project the required push it needs, by providing programs, which educate and inform young people about the App, its uses and benefits. For far too long we have approached human sexuality and sexual reproductive health from a reactive posture.
The sexual and reproductive health of young people have not been addressed effectively. Our young women need to be empowered to know that even if they have been involved in early sexual initiation and may have become pregnant, that cycle of irresponsible sexual conduct and teenage pregnancy need not be a revolving wheel. Young people need to be alert to the real possibility of living sustainable, healthy and satisfying lives. Sex education does not encourage young people to have sex but rather helps encourage our young people to delay sexual initiation and make informed life decisions.
This App therefore represents the hope of better choices for you, boys and girls- an avenue of refuge if you feel peer pressured, taunted or simply, helpless or threatened in any situation concerning your sexual and reproductive health and well-being.
Indeed, this App may well have helped that 13 year old girl living in a rural area in East Trinidad, whose plight of sexual abuse and violation, remained a secret from the police and authorities, until last week when she walked into a Health Centre with her dead 6 month old baby. A child was being abused; she was probably screaming for help, and yet, no one heard.
There are those among us who argue that the less time children spend on the internet, the less influenced they will be by negative and unsavory sexual practices. These figures are by no means unique to the United Kingdom, as I suspect the average Trinbagonian youth probably spends as much as, or even more time, online, as his UK counterpart. The internet, when utilized responsibly is a wonderful tool of enlightenment and education.
As a parent of 2 teenagers, my duty to my children is not to stifle their ability to be informed and educated by way of the internet, but rather to monitor and guide the content of their internet browsing. This is exactly what the EPI Report UK concluded- that parents must be empowered about the best ways to safeguard and support their children online. Ladies and gentlemen, the truth is, we are simply not winning the battle through conventional methods.
In this regard, it is creditable that in developing the App, the UNFPA engaged its youth arm to run a Pilot on the App that took account of our local vernacular and cultural mores and norms. This is an important ingredient to the success of any universal notion intended to be applied locally and the UNPFA has done it well. The aim always, with these types of ventures is to inform, change, protect and save in the best holistic way possible.
I am positive that the local content of the App will allow the Trinbagonian user the level of comfort, ease and familiarity required to get the user engaged and on board with the services provided by the App, so congratulations to the UNFPA, its Youth Advisory Group and its other partners for the touch of local sensitivity. It is my understanding that users will have access to Peer Educators with whom to discuss issues surrounding Comprehensive Sexual Education CSE and in respect of emergencies or on matters which the Peer Educators cannot resolve, experts and specialists can be contacted.
The reality is that for many persons in Trinidad and Tobago, especially those in the rural, outlying areas of this twin island Republic, both the smart phones and the internet are limited luxuries, either due to the cost factor or lack of availability of the internet service.
