The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) in collaboration with the Government of Lao PDR and other stakeholders launched the Noi approach in 2016 to raise awareness on adolescent issues and increase investments in over 700,000 adolescent girls in Lao PDR through multi-sectoral and multi-stakeholder partnerships.

UNFPA and partners are working to implement the Noi ecosystem with interlinked components focusing on strengthening supply-side systems as well as improving the voice and awareness on the demand side.
