Description
| The Adolescent Girls Initiative is a longitudinal, randomized controlled trial that is testing the impact of different multi-sectoral packages of intervention on very young adolescent girls in two marginalized geographies of Kenya - an urban informal settlement and rural areas in northeastern Kenya along the border of Somalia. The trial is testing four packages of interventions: 1) violence prevention only; 2) violence prevention + education; 3) violence prevention + education + health; and 4) violence prevention + education + health + wealth. |
