Evaluating the adolescents 360 approach in Ogun (Nigeria), Nasarawa (Nigeria), Oromia (Ethiopia) and Mwanza (Tanzania) – Dataset codebook

Permanent identifier

10.17037/DATA.00003599

Description

Adolescents 360 (A360) was an approach in the field of adolescent sexual and reproductive health programming, with the intention of being implemented at scale in Nigeria, Ethiopia and Tanzania. We present here the data for the outcome evaluation of A360. The primary objective of the outcome evaluation was to evaluate the effectiveness of the A360 programme in increasing the uptake of voluntary modern contraception among sexually active girls aged 15–19 years.

Dataset codebook

The collection consists of four datasets, each of which contains data for a specific location: Nasarawa (Nigeria), Ogun (Nigeria), Oromia (Ethiopia) and Mwanza (Tanzania). The baseline and endline datasets for each location has been merged into a single dataset.
