“Curious about contraceptive discontinuation?  Intrigued by intersections of technology and sexual health?  Apply to join the Data+ “Big Data for Reproductive Health” team!

This summer, participants will collaborate with Duke Global Health Institute reproductive health investigators, producing a digital resource that repackages basic Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) information on contraceptive discontinuation as actionable intelligence for family planning organizations. During the 10-week program, students will also seek feedback from RTI researchers and determine appropriate distribution tactics for their social media-integrated platform.

Like other Data+ programs, this project is interdisciplinary, combining the fields of computer science, global health, gender, sexuality and feminist studies, public policy and, of course, data.  To find out more and apply, click here.”
