Community-based Family Planning and HIV & AIDS Services

This project works with the Ministry of Health and other community based organizations, especially at the zonal level in eight target districts, to promote fully functional services to clients in rural areas through a revitalized network of 1,000 Community-Based Distribution Agents (CBDAs) trained in family planning (FP) and HIV integration. The project also will expand the contraceptive method mix, including long-term and permanent methods and scientific natural contraceptive methods. The project will engage and train decision-makers, nurses and clinicians at the national, zonal, and district levels to heighten awareness of FP/HIV issues and advocate for supportive policies, including a policy that allows provision of injectable contraceptives by CBDAs.
