for support to expand access to medication abortion in East Africa
This grant to Population Services International (PSI) will support sustainable strategies for medication abortion in East Africa. PSI is developing a sustainable enterprise to market and distribute a selection of health products in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. Under previous grants, PSI was able to register and distribute new medical abortion products and build a digital partnership for distribution in Kenya and Uganda. In this phase, funding will support public sector strengthening, expansion of PSI’s local social business for product and collaboration with Trust for Indigenous Culture and Health, another Global Reproductive Equity grantee. This grant is well aligned with the Global Reproductive Equity strategy to increase access to safe abortion in East Africa.
