Data visualization dashboard of adolescent pregnancies in Kenya, 2016 - 2020 Adolescent Pregnancies in Kenya, 2016 - 2020 ================ ## Introduction The impact of Covid-19 on women and girls has been greatly felt over the past 100 days of COVID 19 in Kenya. With effects such as loss of livelihood leading to economic challenges, in accessibility to health service for pre and post-natal care. This also includes exposure to domestic violence due to the measures put in place to curb the spread of the CoronaVirus. Among these impacts is the unprecedented impact on children attending school. New reports show a steep rise in the number of young girls aged 10-19 presenting with pregnancy. In 2020 there’s a noted spike in the numbers reported between March to May compared to the reports of the same time period in 2019. These changes could be attributed to the closure of schools due to COVID-19 among other factors the work of Women in GIS Kenya (WiGISKe) will highlight this via data science.
