Formative research to inform the design of a youth-led self-care intervention to increase uptake of voluntary family planning and reproductive health care services among adolescent girls (10-19 years) in Uganda
REFNo: HS1294ES
The overall objective of the study will be to explore adolescent girls perceptions towards provision of self-care FP services and stakeholders’ perceptions towards provision of voluntary FP and RHC information and services to adolescent girls aged 10-19 years by fellow adolescents in order to inform the design of a youth-led self-care intervention to improve uptake of voluntary FP and RHC services to adolescent girls aged 10-19 years in Uganda. Specifically, this study will aim to:
1. Determine differentials in teenage pregnancy rates and contraceptive use by socio-demographic and behavioural characteristics
2. Assess the association between modern contraceptive use and teenage pregnancy rates among adolescents (15-19 years) across the different demographic and health surveys.
3. Explore the FP and RHC information and service needs of the very young adolescent girls (10-14 years) and older adolescents (15-19 years).
4. Explore mechanisms through which adolescent girls (10-19 years) can be involved in the design and delivery of voluntary FP and RHC interventions for fellow adolescents.
5. Explore adolescent girls’ perceptions about self-care FP methods and whether or not self-care FP methods can help to reduce the barriers that adolescents face in accessing and utilizing FP services.
6. Explore key stakeholders’ perceptions towards: a) provision of self-care FP information and services to adolescents; and b) provision of voluntary FP and RHC information and services to adolescent girls aged 10-19 years by fellow adolescents.
7. Explore key stakeholders’ perceptions on the acceptability of an intervention that entails provision of FP and RHC information and services to adolescent girls (10-19 years) by fellow adolescent girls.
8. Explore the barriers to and facilitators of interventions that provide FP and RHC information and services to adolescent girls by adolescent girls in the target districts and how provision of such information and services to adolescent girls by fellow adolescent girls can be improved.
