This second grant will focus on deeper country-level engagement in promising countries as well as an intention to shift the leadership of the secretariat to a focus country by the end of this grant cycle.

for support of self-care for sexual and reproductive health
This grant to Population Services International will support the Self-Care Trailblazer Group to expand its field-building activities to promote user-controlled sexual and reproductive health services. Co-funded with the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation, this project brings together advocates, researchers, and other stakeholders to promote and study user-controlled sexual and reproductive health care. This third supplemental grant is taking advantage of a strategic window during the COVID-19 pandemic to promote self-care as a way to mitigate the health system’s limitations caused by the pandemic. This grant is aligned with the International Reproductive Health strategy’s effort to support innovation in service delivery.
