Overview
EngenderHealth works to improve access to and the quality of family planning and reproductive health services in more than fifteen countries in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in the public sector where many women seek services. Using insights from previously-funded work, this grant will allow EngenderHealth to practically demonstrate how family planning service providers, policymakers, and community members in Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa, can act to ensure that women’s rights are respected when seeking services.
