Program Description

Research Summary
The 1997 DHS indicated that while many of Benin's sexually active men have basic knowledge about HIV/AIDS, half of those who are sexually active and single lacked the critical knowledge that condoms are a means to prevent HIV/AIDS (and other STIs). The 1999 KAP revealed a large need for basic knowledge of HIV/AIDS prevention. Among married men with sexual partners other than their wives, 69% were not aware that condoms can prevent HIV/AIDS. Similarly, 67% of sexually active women not in union were not aware that condoms are a means to prevent HIV/AIDS.
