A Model To Facilitate Male Partner Involvement In The Reproductive Health Contextin Oshikoto Region Namibia

The overall aim of this study was to develop a model to facilitate male partner involvement in the reproductive health (RH) context in the Oshikoto Region of Namibia. This study was brought about by the fact that male partners do not fully participate in the RH context, because the health system lacks provision for or fails to recognise male involvement and underestimates the active role that male partners could play in the RH of their female partners. As a result some male partners might feel excluded from the process when accompanying their female partner in receiving RH services or feel that they do not benefit from RH services. It would also seem that there is a disparity in RH service delivery in Namibia whereby women and children are the main targets of most available RH programmes and services. In addition, it would seem that health facilities are not user friendly and male partners feel excluded and alienated from them.
