dc.description.abstractFive linked cluster surveys between 2002 and 2008, allowed measurement of changes in rates of multiple partnerships in Swaziland. The study analysis includes only people interviewed in communities in all of the five surveys (1,862 men and 2,701 women). Among men, there was a significant fall in the proportion having multiple partners in the last 12 months. Among women, there was a significant decrease in multiple partners in the past 12 months measured against 2002 (22%) and 2007 (9%), then a significant increase in 2008 (15%). A 2006 campaign to reduce multiple partnerships may have changed behaviour among men.en
