It therefore investigated the status of these two factors, identified gaps and proposed solutions. The report begins with a brief discussion of what the study was about, how it was conceptualised and what it aimed to achieve. It then provides a background of what adolescent and youth friendly services and peer education are highlighting the relevance of this study. The report also presents a brief background on Mnambithi TVET College, as well as an account of the geographical distribution of IHLs in ILembe, UGu, UMkhanyakude, UThukela and Zululand districts of KZN, including the mapping of the SRHR and HIV prevention peer education programmes identified in these institutions.
