Determinant of women's autonomy in sexual and reproductive health decision-making in Tanzania: a multilevel analysis of 2022 demographic and health survey
This study found that nearly half of Tanzanian women lacked autonomy in SRH decision-making, significantly influenced by factors such as age, education, media exposure, current employment status, parity, wealth index, and geographic region. To address these disparities, comprehensive and context-specific interventions are necessary to overcome the cultural and socio-economic challenges faced by underserved populations.
