Summary

This study tested a group-based program called Jenga Dada (meaning 'Build a Woman Up' in Swahili) for women in Kenya who are part of community economic groups. The program teaches skills to recognize and challenge inequality, handle financial abuse, and use family planning safely. Researchers worked with 238 women aged 15 and older to see if the program boosts their confidence to cope with abuse and plan their families.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Jenga Dada group-based behavioral intervention
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a community-based tool to reduce partner violence and unintended pregnancy among women in Kenya.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (238 participants) testing only short-term changes in self-efficacy, not actual violence or pregnancy rates. Results may not apply to other settings.
