Abstract

The results demonstrated that peer-led community-based care that integrates SRH services with HIV is a versatile model to decentralise health and social care. The family could be a platform to target restrictive gender and sexual norms, by challenging not only attitudes and behaviours related to gender among young people but also the gendered structures that surround them.
