dc.description.abstractIn the last decade, young people have emerged as the group with the fastest growing HIV incidence in SubSaharan Africa. Although, both HIV and adolescent pregnancy have been decreasing in Uganda over the last 15 years, HIV prevalence is still unacceptably high at 6.4%, and 25% of 15–19-year-olds in 2007 were pregnant or had already had a live birth. This report draws on 103 semistructured in-depth interviews with 12–19-year-old males and females, in school and out of school, from urban and rural areas, to learn about adolescents’ risk and protective behaviors related to HIV and unintended pregnancy. Their narratives provide important contextual information to help us understand the behaviors that adolescents employ in reaction to risks of HIV and unintended pregnancyen_US
