Summary View help for Summary
This project collects data in the process of the Mzanga intervention, which aims to help maintain optimal reproductive health in the context of high HIV prevalence for young rural Malawian women ages 15-20. The intervention uses a longitudinal, two-group comparison design with a delayed control group, for a final sample of 345 women. Eighteen geographically separate rural communities are stratified by size and distance from the main paved road and then randomly assigned to the intervention and delayed control conditions. The intervention occurs across 9 waves, with 4 peer groups per wave. Following baseline assessment, the intervention group receives the 8 session intervention.
