Nicaragua has the highest adolescent pregnancy rate in Latin America, driven by inadequate information on sexual reproductive health and rights (SRHR), poor self-awareness and a sexist culture. Adolescent girls face a high risk of pregnancy with social and economic consequences. Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) and barriers accessing SRHR information/services make it difficult to exercise control over their sexuality, avoid GBV, unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections.
