Currently, I am working within the health promotion sector using branding, commercial marketing and social marketing techniques to increase knowledge, self-efficacy and correct use of health products and services for healthier life styles. The youth are a critical and sensitive target audience for SRH; which was one of the reasons for undertaking my MPH research on 'Influence of Access to internet on YRHCs, a case study of Uganda Christian University." In this era of technology where the internet is pervasive in the lives of young people, it was really interesting to find out if the internet has any significant influence on the SRH choices made by youth.
I hope to learn more from others on SBCC tools and techniques in reaching youth and designing cost-effective and impactful health interventions.
