Exploring intersections of localised gender norms and unanticipated effects of a sexual and reproductive health intervention: Implications of respect and being a "good girl" in Zambezia Province, Mozambique

The authors conducted a longitudinal, qualitative evaluation of girls ages 13 to 17 in Mozambique who had participated in a combined economic strengthening and sexual and reproductive health intervention.

Respondents believed the intervention reinforced these behaviors, although they were not generally aligned with the formal intervention content and were sometimes contrary to the intervention’s goals.
