Abstract

This report is on male participation in sexual and reproductive health (SRH) examined within a wider context of gender relations and the family. It is the result of two collaborative surveys one quantitative and one qualitative which were conducted in rural and urban areas of the Copperbelt Province in Zambia in 1999. During the quantitative survey data was collected from men and their partners pertaining to the following aspects: respondent’s general background characteristics; marriage and marital relations; childbearing; family health and family planning; sexually transmitted infections (STIs); and HIV/AIDS.
