Baseline Survey of Married Adolescent Program in Parsa and Dhanusha Districts

2006

EngenderHealth, in conjunction with CARE Nepal and the Nepal Family Health Program (NFHP) was implemented a project to address the needs of young married people in two Terai districts of Nepal: Dhanusha and Parsa. The main goal of the project was to provide reproductive health information, education and services to young married couples through two primary interventions – a peer education program and youth-friendly service delivery training to the service providers. This study contains baseline information about young married people and estimates the population parameters for use in evaluation and monitoring of the project.
