Flowing toward well-being: Exploring the nexus of clean water access and sexual reproductive health among women and girls in rural Uganda
Access to clean water, MHM products and information and inclusion of women in decision making, are suggested to play important role for women and girls SRH, water access and quality
Bridging the knowledge gap: Accessibility of SRHR information, services and competences of health facilities for adolescents and their care givers in rural Eastern Uganda
This study highlights significant gaps in access to SRHR and SGBV services, with limited awareness on SRHR/SGBV and inadequate reporting of SGBV cases due to stigma. Strengthening community support systems, enhancing SRHR/SGBV service delivery, and building capacity for youth- friendly programs are essential. Additionally, robust monitoring frameworks are needed to track progress and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions

A user centered design (UCD) approach was used to develop and pilot a one stop sanitation digital solutions (SaniDigS) …
