Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility of a contraception education program delivered by peers via social networks to high school students. Our primary hypothesis is that the implementation of a peer-led contraceptive education program via social networks is a feasible approach in high schools on Reunion Island and Guadeloupe, as part of a before-and-after study. Our secondary hypotheses concern the evaluation of adoption, exploratory efficacy (on knowledge, attitudes and practices), acceptability and fidelity of the peer-led education program via social networks among high school students in La Réunion and Guadeloupe. Participants will : * Participate in a focus group to explore their views and experiences regarding the value of a peer educator as a source of sexual and reproductive health information. * answer questionnaires on their knowledge of sexual health * A selected group (peer influencers): Create educational content (after a training period) on sexual health, and particularly contraception, to be broadcast on social networks. * Take note of the program distributed on the networks by the peer influencers (for 3 months) * Fill in questionnaires on their knowledge of sexual health, after the program.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Feasibility of the contraceptive education program, measured by the commitment rate of peer influencers. | From date of enrollment until the end of the programm and its evaluation, assessed up to 15 months | This rate corresponds to the percentage of tasks completed out of the total planned tasks to be carried out by peers in the contraception education program over 3 months. We consider that the program will be feasible if at least 70% of the tasks planned by the peer educators are completed during the 3 months of intervention with high school students. |
