Overview
Pathfinder International works through the public sector to provide women, men, and young people all over the world with a range of quality health services: from reproductive and maternal health services to safe abortion provision and HIV prevention. This support will provide Pathfinder International with resources to begin operations in Cote d’Ivoire, where Pathfinder has identified several areas for collaboration with the Ministry of Health to improve family planning service availability in that country. Initial funding from the foundation will help Pathfinder build a portfolio to attract funding from other donors that are also prioritizing improvements in reproductive health in Francophone West Africa, such as the U.S. government.

Grants to this Grantee
for increasing access to reproductive health in Côte d'Ivoire
This grant supports Pathfinder International’s program in Côte d’Ivoire, where Pathfinder has identified several areas for collaboration with the Ministry of Health to improve family planning service availability. This funding builds on four previous rounds of funding from the foundation that helped Pathfinder build a program in Côte d’Ivoire as its hub for operations in Francophone West Africa. Through community and youth mobilization and technical support to national partners, Pathfinder aims to increase availability of contraceptive methods and improve access to safe abortion and postabortion care, particularly in rolling out the government’s new free contraception policy. This grant for Pathfinder’s program in Côte d’Ivoire is aligned with the Global Reproductive Equity strategy goal that women and girls in Francophone West Africa are increasingly able to seek, access, and use comprehensive reproductive health care to further their health, well-being, and life aspirations.
