The third is LGBTQ+ Adolescents: Transgender, Gender-Diverse, Gay & Lesbian Youth. The core message for this focus area is that sexual justice means affirming and defending the rights, dignity, needs, and identities of all LGBTQ+ people, especially trans, non-binary, gay, and lesbian adolescents.

Sexual justice:
It is not optional. 🙅
It should NOT be political. 🙅
It’s the foundation of health, dignity, and equality. #WSHD2025 #SexualJustice
🗣️ Birth control is health care.
🗣️ Access to abortion care is health care.
🫵 You deserve access to both, no matter who you are or where you live.

Sexual Justice means building a world where everyone can experience sexual health, rights, and pleasure, free from discrimination, violence, or barriers. 🌍#WSHD2025 #SexualJustice
Abortion bans, barriers to contraception, funding restrictions, and stigma threaten women and girls’ sexual and reproductive autonomy. When people can’t make decisions about their own bodies, there is no justice. #WSHD2025 #SexualJustice #ReproRights
Restricting or trying to ban sex education doesn’t lessen young people’s curiosity; it only makes them more susceptible to false information online about intimacy, relationships, and their bodies. #WSHD2025 #SexualJustice #SexEdMatters
Access to accurate and factual information on sexuality and health is vital for sexual justice. Book bans and the removal of evidence-based material from schools and social media hinder informed decision-making. Access to truth is access to justice. #WSHD2025 #SexualJustice
