Obstacles And Consequences For Young People's Access To Hsr

This study targeted young people in the Kyeshero district. To be included in the study young people had to be aged between 15 and 24 and live in the Kyeshero district. A total of 384 young people meeting the above conditions were interviewed. We used the questionnaire survey technique which enabled us to collect the data needed to carry out this work. The results show that 53.1% of respondents had no information on the services available in the Kyeshero district and this proved to be a significant factor in young people's access to reproductive health services. With regard to religious beliefs 65.4% said that religion gave them the opportunity to use reproductive health services. For the taboo subject of reproductive health 56.5% indicated that the subject of reproductive health is accepted but little discussed.
