Scenario

Adolescents (aged 15-19) in country X have a high rate of pregnancy – about 55% of girls become pregnant by the age of 19.

The Ministry of Health is concerned about the early age of childbearing and implications for the health and well-being of young girls entering motherhood, in addition to concerns about completion of education and employment.
