Description
Gunilla Priebe and co-authors study gender norms and sexual health among young women in Angola in this 2025 paper. Restrictive norms still limit women's choices in health and family life. Angola faces high teen pregnancy and patchy access to contraception and maternity care.
Changing services alone will not fix norms that shape what women may seek. The team gathered insights from young Angolan women themselves. They then built a questionnaire tuned to that local context. A homegrown tool can measure norms as women actually live them. Health programs can use it to track whether norms are shifting. The work blends listening first with careful measurement after.
