Ask Fay: Revolutionizing Delivery of SRH Information and Services

November 8, 2023

Meet the team behind Ask Fay

Ask Fay in summary

Ask FAY is a web platform that addresses a nuanced problem statement: How might we better support young adults (18-29) to access real-time information and services on SRH to reduce the stigma and discrimination around it? To better understand the foundation of this problem, the team behind Ask Fay developed 3-point research questions to unpack the sexual and reproductive health needs of the users in this age group. 

The HCD-led research pointed towards an overarching need to leverage digital technology to deliver high-quality immediate and anonymous sexual and reproductive health information and services for young adults. This informed the creation of Ask Fay, an intervention that has clinical rigor of a healthcare site with the welcoming feel of a social media site to provide immediate, real-time and anonymous access to sexual health information and services for young adults aged 18-29 years old.

This proposed solution is an aggregator of services that caters for a youth-centered, inclusive, anonymous and equitable access to sexual and reproductive health and rights information and services at all times. Here are the lived realities Ask Fay seeks to efficiently address;

Once this solution is developed, it will be a digital platform that delivers immediate and anonymous access to sexual and reproductive health information and services to 18-29 year-olds.
