HIV Status and Achieving Fertility Desires: Implications for HIV Prevention (ICPSR 36018)
Released/updated on: 2015-06-22
Geographic coverage: Africa, Zambia, Nigeria, Sub-Saharan Africa
The project encompasses three research efforts. First, it analyzes existing survey data on men and women of reproductive age in 14 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa regarding HIV status, biomarkers, fertility desires, and sexual reproductive behaviors. Quantitative survey data are also collected in Nigeria and Zambia - a community-based sample of 1,300 men and women and a facility-based sample of 200 HIV+ people in each country. Topics include attitudes towards HIV testing and services, actions towards fertility aspirations, and actions to cope with or prevent HIV infection. 48 respondents are systematically selected from the quantitative survey for in-depth interviews. Semi-structured interviews are conducted with about 80 providers in Nigeria and Zambia who provide sexual and reproductive health care.
