Empowering Teenagers
We believe that by creating a dialogue between parents and teens and teens to-be, we can achieve a healthy relationship and a positive social impact.
Our Mission
In alignment with SDGs #3 and #5 of the United Nations, The Teens Project aims at leveraging technology to"Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all ages"and "Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls."
The founders of the project have set a defined timeline to achieve multiple milestones tackling the issues around "the menstrual period" for teens. This topic will be the first in a series of initiatives.
