Studies show that young people who believe in gender equality have better sexual health outcomes than their peers (International Sexuality and HIV Curriculum Working Group, 2011). Young people who, compared to their peers, adopt egalitarian attitudes about gender roles are more likely to delay sexual debut, use condoms, and practice contraception; they also have lower rates of sexually transmitted infections and unintended pregnancy (Dupas, 2011). Very few programmes reach these groups, especially adolescents who are not in school. Developing out-of-school programmes is therefore essential.
