Produktbeschreibung
Contraceptive use among teenagers is low worldwide and little is known about factors that underlie the low use of contraceptives among adolescents aged 15-19 years. Similarly, little is known and documented about the perceptions of the adolescents regarding access and use of contraceptives. This book is based on an intensive study on contraceptive use among adolescents aged 15-19 years. The book identifies perceptions and barriers that affect contraceptive use among female and male adolescents useful to guide policy and programmes. The results of the study documented in this book were achieved through use of several methods of data collection: adolescents' respondent interviews, focus group discussions and in-depth interviews with parents of adolescents and teachers of schools attended by those adolescents. The analysis should help shed light on sexuality information, perceptions and barriers to contraceptive use among adolescents and should especially be useful for parents, teachers, reproductive health and population program managers and policy makers.
