This study will be conducted in Dessie and Kombolcha zones in Amhara region, North east Ethiopia. The largest sample size will be taken and total sample size will be 784.
Cluster randomized control trial behavioral intervention sampling technique will be deployed. First participants will be grouped in to two arms based on randomization of clusters. The intervention arm will take the new mobile health intervention with existed health care practice and the control arm will take the existed current health care practice. Intervention mobile health messages will be developed from family planning behavior change framework and national guidelines. Data will be collected by using pre-tested interviewer administered structured questionnaires. Data will be collected in four different phases. Open data kit (ODK) will be used for data collection. Duration of intervention will be 4 months. Descriptive analyses will be made by computing proportions and summary statistics. Statistical package to social science (SPSS.26) and STATA.15 soft wares will be used to do analysis. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) or path analysis will be done to identify the fitted components to determine latent variables.
