Sponsor's own description

The study aims to generate knowledge on barriers experienced by married adolescent girls (MAGs) in demanding, accessing and practicing their rights regarding their sexual and reproductive health (SRH), including family planning (FP) use, conception, and seeking health care relating to SRH. We will also explore the underlying factors influencing such barriers. The study will develop and test a social norms intervention that addresses the gaps in programming and in the literature combining a comprehensive empowerment programme for MAGs with engagement of other stakeholders to increase demand, access and practices of positive behaviours in relation to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) among these girls. We will collaborate with a local organization, who usually work on empowerment and SRHR of women, for implementing the intervention and will build their capacity as well. The study will employ a mixed-method two-arm cluster randomized controlled trial design. All the information generated will inform the program and policy about the barriers and potential solutions to improve demand, access and practices of SRHR among the MAGs.
