Kenya (2009): Multiple Concurrent Partnership study, Baseline study among men and women 15-49 years in Kenya. First round.

The purpose of this study is to provide baseline estimates for the PSI/Kenya five-year project, "Concurrent Sexual Partnerships (CSP).These estimates will be useful in CSP program monitoring and evaluation during the funding period. The study also assessed the exposure levels among the target group of the GOK/PSI-Kenya behavior change campaign "Mpango wa kando," designed to increase awareness of the risk associated with trusted stable sexual relationships. The study was conducted in rural and urban areas of Kenya and in all provinces except North Eastern. Analysis consisted of calculating baseline numbers for the program indicators (behavioral or proxy determinants) and results presented in monitoring dashboard. Predictive analysis on determinants correlated with CSP was dropped due to inadequate number of cases of men and women 15-49 reporting having two or more partners. This paper therefore, does not present segmentation dashboards for CSP.
