\n\nLa Guyane est un petit pays situ\u00e9 dans les Cara\u00efbes, qui compte moins d'un million d'habitants. C'est le seul pays de la r\u00e9gion, apr\u00e8s Cuba, o\u00f9 l'avortement est l\u00e9gal. Cependant, il est encore difficile d'obtenir un avortement dans le pays en raison du manque d'information, de la stigmatisation et de la disponibilit\u00e9 limit\u00e9e des services de sant\u00e9 sexuelle et g\u00e9n\u00e9sique.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nC'est pourquoi le travail du GRPA, de la <\/span>Association guyanaise pour la parent\u00e9 responsable<\/span><\/a>, est essentiel. GRPA est une organisation partenaire de F\u00f2s Feminista qui fournit des services et prot\u00e8ge les droits sexuels et reproductifs des Guyanais, ainsi que ceux des femmes. <\/span>des milliers de V\u00e9n\u00e9zu\u00e9liens<\/span> des r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s et des migrants attir\u00e9s en Guyane par la perspective d'un avenir meilleur. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nL'un des piliers du GRPA et de F\u00f2s Feminista est Kobe Smith, qui a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 faire du b\u00e9n\u00e9volat au GRPA \u00e0 l'\u00e2ge de 15 ans et qui est membre de l'\u00e9quipe de direction du GRPA. <\/span>Conseil d'administration de F\u00f2s Feminista<\/span><\/a> depuis 2017. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nLorsqu'il \u00e9tait au lyc\u00e9e, Kobe s'est rendu compte que la grossesse chez les adolescentes \u00e9tait une r\u00e9alit\u00e9 qu'il voyait partout. Par l'interm\u00e9diaire d'un enseignant, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 \u00e0 l'association GRPA, o\u00f9 il a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 participer \u00e0 des activit\u00e9s d'\u00e9ducation sexuelle dans les \u00e9coles et dans les espaces de prise de d\u00e9cision afin de promouvoir la sant\u00e9 et les droits sexuels et g\u00e9n\u00e9siques. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nKobe est rapidement devenu un leader, participant aux r\u00e9unions de l'Organisation des \u00c9tats am\u00e9ricains et des Nations unies pour faire entendre la voix des jeunes des Cara\u00efbes dans les n\u00e9gociations sur les droits de l'homme, le d\u00e9veloppement et la sant\u00e9. Pour Kobe, il est essentiel de veiller \u00e0 ce que les nations des Cara\u00efbes soient repr\u00e9sent\u00e9es dans les organismes r\u00e9gionaux car, en tant que petits pays, elles sont parfois n\u00e9glig\u00e9es dans les affaires continentales. \u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nDe retour en Guyane, Kobe a contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 l'\u00e9laboration de lois et de politiques nationales sur diverses questions, notamment les droits des adolescents et des jeunes et la lutte contre la violence sexiste. L'un de ses sujets de travail pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9s est celui des nouvelles masculinit\u00e9s, car la masculinit\u00e9 toxique a un impact consid\u00e9rable sur la violence fond\u00e9e sur le genre et les f\u00e9minicides. \u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n
\"We men have to learn that there are many ways to be men. We don't have to be rigid and dominant. There are men with diverse sexual orientations, gender expressions, and just different personalities\" <\/span><\/blockquote>\nEn Guyane, <\/span>sodomie <\/span>est interdit par la loi, \u00e9tant le seul pays d'Am\u00e9rique du Sud o\u00f9 les relations sexuelles entre hommes adultes sont un crime. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nEn 2017, Kobe a remport\u00e9 le prix national de la jeunesse du Guyana et a \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9compens\u00e9 \u00e0 plusieurs reprises par des organisations internationales avant et depuis lors. Les <\/span>Chronique de la Guyane<\/span><\/a>, the country's leading newspaper, said of Kobe last year, \"At just the age of 22, Kobe Smith is a human rights defender and has managed to achieve a whole lot for not only himself, but also for those whom he advocates on behalf of.\" <\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nKobe se pr\u00e9pare maintenant \u00e0 participer \u00e0 des espaces tels que la Conf\u00e9rence internationale sur la planification familiale en Tha\u00eflande et \u00e0 des projets avec l'UNFPA au niveau local en Guyane.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nL'une des choses que Kobe aime le plus est de manger du roti et du curry et de boire du Coca Cola. Ses chanteurs pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9s sont Adele et Sam Smith. C'est un excellent r\u00e9citant de po\u00e8mes et un grand danseur de musique carib\u00e9enne. Sa joie de vivre est contagieuse et l'\u00e9couter parler en public, lors d'une conf\u00e9rence ou d'une interview, est captivant. \u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\nGr\u00e2ce \u00e0 des leaders comme Kobe, les mouvements de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 civile sont renforc\u00e9s, et ces mouvements permettent \u00e0 leur tour \u00e0 des leaders comme Kobe d'inspirer d'autres jeunes, en leur montrant que l'\u00e2ge n'a pas d'importance pour faire la diff\u00e9rence dans la soci\u00e9t\u00e9.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<\/div>","":null,"anchor_id":""}}]},"yoast_head":"\nA leader for Guyana's youth -
