Operations Research. The reproductive health field has long had an interest in studying men’s involvement to determine if a focus on men can increase contraceptive use and other positive reproductive health behaviors. This CSP will use men’s groups to discuss a variety of health issues, particularly relating to the three project interventions, and explore the question: Will educating and mobilizing men around maternal and child health issues improve household level behavior change? The project will conduct this study within the CHS catchment area, not the area outside as other services are not comparable. The partners will select communities for implementing men’s groups and compare their behavior change with other communities just using Care Groups and other strategies. The project will not compare communities outside of the project area due to costs of extra surveys.
