Author(s): Bright Mukanga*, Myra Taylor and Siyabonga Blessing Dlamini
Background: In Sub-Sahara Africa, young people aged between 15 and 24 years are disproportionately affected by the HIV pandemic and
represent a growing population in need of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services. Several theory-based HIV prevention interventions have
been developed and implemented to reduce the risk of HIV infection transmission among young people and enhance positive sexual behaviours.
However, there are few evidence syntheses that highlight the role of theory-based HIV and sexual health interventions in enhancing positive sexual
behaviours among young people in Sub-Saharan Africa. This review aims to map evidence on the role of theory-based HIV prevention intervention
in enhancing positive sexual behaviour outcomes and reducing risk factors among young people aged 10 -24 years of age in Sub-Saharan Africa.
