Outcomes of three different models for sex education and citizenship programs concerning knowledge, attitudes, and behavior of Brazilian adolescents
Three different school-based sex education and citizenship programs in public schools in Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte, and Salvador, Brazil, were evaluated in a cross-sectional study comparing knowledge, attitudes, and practices in sexuality, citizenship, and gender issues among adolescents participating in the programs' activities as compared to adolescents enrolled in schools without such programs (controls). Results showed that Salvador's pr…
Facilitating Large‐scale Transitions to Quality of Care
In the field of reproductive health, investigation of the transfer of knowledge gained from demonstration and pilot projects to large public‐sector programs typically has not been considered a relevant domain for research or other investigation. This article draws on a range of research in the social sciences and presents two frameworks for understanding the critical attributes of successful expansion of small‐scale innovations. Seven key lessons…
Organizing a Public‐sector Vasectomy Program in Brazil
Although models of high‐quality family planning services for men exist in Latin America, few if any have been organized within the complex and resource‐constrained national public health systems. This study provides evidence from the Santa Barbara project in southern Brazil showing how vasectomy was introduced into the municipal health system. It demonstrates that once the necessary operational and quality‐of‐care improvements were in place, and …
Expanding Contraceptive Choice
This article presents findings from a participatory action research project in a municipality in southern Brazil that models a new and holistic approach to broadening women's contraceptive choices. The project encourages a collaborative process between researchers, community members, and public health managers to diagnose service‐delivery problems, to design and implement interventions, and to evaluate their effectiveness. Findings from the basel…
The Social Process and the Transgenerational Transmission of Trauma in Chile
The Strategic Approach to Contraceptive Introduction
The introduction of new contraceptive technologies has great potential for expanding contraceptive choice, but in practice, benefits have not always materialized as new methods have been added to public-sector programs. In response to lessons from the past, the UNDP/UNFPA/WHO/World Bank Special Programme of Research, Development, and Research Training in Human Reproduction (HRP) has taken major steps to develop a new approach and to support gover…
Intrauterine Contraception with Copper and with Levonorgestrel
First year results of a randomized study of 1509 users of the Copper T380Ag with a silver core or of an IUD releasing 20 mcg day of levonorgestrel are reported. The cumulative gross pregnancy rate for each device was 0.3 per 100 at one year, with more than 490 women having one year of use with each device. The levonorgestrel-releasing device was associated with significantly fewer bleeding days and significantly increased hemoglobin levels when c…
