Imagine a future where young girls confidently walk into health facilities to receive the HPV vaccine, fully aware of its importance—protected, empowered, and in control of their health choices. This vision is at the heart of a groundbreaking initiative by Girl Effect, in partnership with Kids & Teens Resource Centre (K&TRC). To turn this vision into reality, we conducted a two-day training for teachers in Odigbo and Akure South Local Government Areas. The focus? Equipping educators with accurate information about the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) and training them to use the Champions App—an innovative tool designed by Girl Effect to increase HPV vaccine uptake among girls aged 9-14. Training Teachers to Drive HPV Vaccine Awareness The training wasn’t just a lecture; it was an immersive experience. Teachers gained in-depth knowledge about HPV, how it leads to cervical cancer, and the role of the vaccine in prevention. They also learned how to navigate the Champions App, which simplifies and personalizes HPV education for young girls. Experts Weigh In: The Role of Schools in HPV Vaccine Uptake Mrs. Olayemi Fakeyin, Deputy Director of Guidance and Counseling at the Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology, emphasized the importance of securing the future of
