FACT Project Formative Research: Group Learning

The FACT Project’s Group Learning through Community Organizations solution aims to increase fertility awareness and expand access to Fertility Awareness-based Methods (FAM) at the community level. To inform solution development, formative research was conducted over a two month period in two sub-counties of the Acholi sub-region of Uganda, that encompasses the Gulu district and city. The qualitative research included 20 focus group discussions and 13 in-depth interviews with YIELD members, YIELD Facilitators, Community Leaders, and FP Providers. Data was analyzed using matrices to organize findings and identify main themes.
