Abstract
In Senegal, adolescents aged between 10 and 19 years, and young adults aged 20-24 represent 22.5% and
9% of the general population respectively (ANSD, RGPHAE 2013). Senegal is one of five countries globally
with the lowest gross enrollment rates for girls (87.92%) and low levels of reproductive health knowledge
among girls and young women (UNESCO, 2015).
