Back to Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR)
About the project
Project Period: Jan 2020 - Mar 2024 (49 Months)
This is a collaborative project with University of Victoria Canada and Makerere University Kampala, that involves building research and advocacy skills for young mothers to negotiate for their sexual and reproductive health and rights in Busoga region and Kampala.
Project Focus
The overall goal of the partnership is to investigate and reveal the gendered, generational, structural, and cultural forces that frame young motherhood and how young mothers navigate the social definitions to meet their SRH needs. More specifically, the project analyses policies that shape adolescents' SRHR, assess young mothers' everyday experiences of parenthood, how young mothers conceptualize and navigate social norms, and describe the process of knowledge co-creation.
