Summary

Stigma around abortion and other reproductive health care is pervasive in most contexts and has been documented to have implications for the quality of care. This study aims to assess how Values Clarification and Attitude Transformation (VCAT) workshops for providers of abortion and family planning services influences service provision of abortion and family planning services, including the quality and person-centeredness of care provided. A secondary aim is to measure how provider attitudes, knowledge, and behavioral intent change over time as a result of the VCAT workshop.This study will be conducted across multiple regions in Ethiopia.
