Reproductive Empowerment Scale

26 Jun 2020

To strengthen and standardize the measurement of reproductive empowerment amongst women in sub-Saharan Africa, MEASURE Evaluation - a project funded by the United States Agency for International Development - recently developed and validated a multidimensional scale that can be incorporated in the survey instruments. The Reproductive Empowerment Scale consists of five short sub-scales that measure women’s communication with healthcare providers, communication with partners, decision-making, social support, and social norms on issues related to women’s reproductive health and fertility. This scale can be scaled and adapted to measure reproductive empowerment across low- to middle-income countries.
