In 2023, Kimberly Rosado, a UConn nursing student and UST/AHEC scholar, travelled 3000 miles to Guatemala as a BOLD Women’s Leadership Network Scholar to produce a documentary on underage pregnancy and reproductive rights. The title of the documentary is Una Flor Marchita, which means “a withered flower.” In this episode, fellow UConn nursing student and UST/AHEC scholar, Khadijah Stanford, interviews Kimberly about her experience and what she learned about reproductive and sexual health education and the factors that contribute to the underage pregnancy epidemic in Guatemala. The discussion encompasses education, religion, the societal roles imposed on women, prevalent stereotypes, the influence of machismo, and the accessibility of resources. This conversation also sheds light on how Guatemalan women who now reside in the United States view women’s reproductive rights and pregnancy.
