Integrated HPV and SRH Service Package

"1. Integrated Service Package combines HPV vaccination with sexual and reproductive health (SRH) education. The vaccine in the intervention package is a single dose of recombinant Human Papilloma virus quadrivalent types, 6, 11, 16, and 18.;~2. The package will be delivered through multiple touch-points such as school-based programs, health facility services, and community outreach. i) In school, the intervention incorporates Comprehensive Sexuality Education, empowering boys and girls with knowledge about their bodies, health, and rights. This goes beyond simply providing information about HPV and vaccination. ii) At health facilities, the intervention package will also be delivered in adolescent-friendly ways, ensuring that boys and girls feel comfortable accessing SRH information. iii) Since not all boys and girls attend school, the intervention includes community outreach that ensures wider reach and accessibility for adolescents aged 10-13, including those not enrolled in school."
