Abstract

Adolescent mothers in Nairobi face significant challenges that affect their educational attainment and overall well-being.

The theoretical model elucidates the complex interplay between policy adoption rates and socio-economic factors affecting adolescent mothers' education. Policy makers should consider targeted interventions to increase school attendance for adolescent mothers by addressing specific barriers such as lack of resources or stigma.
