Setting for Intervention Delivery

- School setting [14],

- Worksite [15],

- Community [1, 13]

- Health centre [9]

Parents mentioned that they would want to receive the training at a community centre

Adolescents preferred their school environment

We can be gathered in a community centre, mostly that is where most meetings are held…our adolescents can also have theirs in school or the same place…we just want to be sure of what they are going to tell them” (P5, F, 39 years)

It can be done in school; they can group us or maybe a very big classroom can be used”. (A6, M, 16 years)

- The qualitative findings explain the findings from the systematic review

- Community- or school-based intervention may be acceptable for parents and adolescents in the Ghanaian context

- Parents, however, would prefer that adolescents have theirs at the community or the school

This explained the findings from the systematic review. Parents cared about what information adolescents would be given, regardless of the setting, for the intervention delivery
