Abstract:

Young people today face many health-related challenges. This report is designed to help program managers, policymakers, and other people and organizations working with youth to understand some of these challenges. Drawing from the most recent Tanzania Demographic and Health Survey (2004-05) and the Tanzania HIV/AIDS Indicator Survey (2003-04), this report outlines the latest information about reproductive health and HIV knowledge, behaviours, and prevalence among Tanzania’s young people, age 15 to 24.
