Overview
This funding would allow Population Action International to continue to promote universal access to family planning and reproductive health services through research, advocacy, and innovative partnerships. Its current ten-year strategic plan aims to (1) double annual funding for family planning and reproductive health services in low-income countries to more than $25 billion by 2022 and (2) establish a supportive policy environment for these services. The organization has set three-year organizational priorities to expand its global advocacy program to deepen its impact in priority countries, and to increase funding and advance supportive policies from donor governments and agencies in at least two focus countries. During this grant period, it also plans to build a communications infrastructure to support its program and advocacy agenda.

for improving government accountability for family planning services and supplies in Africa
Population Action International (PAI) works to ensure universal access to quality reproductive health care, including family planning, around the world. This grant will support PAI’s work with civil society organizations in seven countries in East and West Africa to develop a compelling, rigorous, evidence-informed approach that enables civil society-led action to hold governments accountable in delivering on family planning commitments. This grant also enables advocates to demonstrate how equitable, sustained, and/or increased funding for family planning can save lives, improve the health of people in their communities, and contribute to achieving priority development goals and commitments.
