The Religious Argumentation for the Promotion of Adolescent and Youth Health was created in partnership between the le Cadre des Religieux pour la Santé et le Développement (CRSD) in Senegal and the Department of Mother and Child Health (DSME) within the Ministry of Health. This argumentation was created by religious leaders committed to the promotion of maternal and child health, complementing the communication strategies developed by the Ministry of Health surrounding adolescent and youth health.

The argumentation discusses a series of issues that are linked to adolescent and youth health more broadly. The discussions of roles and responsibilities, as well as critical health information, are supported by both religious texts and medical knowledge. This goal of this document is to facilitate intergenerational dialogue between adolescents and youths and their parents, as well as strengthen the relationship with religious leaders.
