Dr. Sangeetha Madhavan featured in The Standard!

R. Lee Hornbake Library

A new article in The Standard titled “End of ‘I do’? Urban couples find joy without formal marriage vows” highlights research featuring Dr. Sangeetha Madhavan. The study shows that more than 80 percent of women cohabit with their partners, with only a small fraction choosing to formalize their unions. Findings reveal that the emotional health of women is more strongly tied to the quality of their relationships than to whether or not they marry formally.

The Standard is one of the most widely read newspapers in Kenya.
