DKT - Social marketing of SRH Commodities 2023-2026 - SRH Commodities 2023-2026 - Mali DKT - Social marknadsföring av SRH produkter 2023-2026 Programmet Strengthening Reproductive Health and Rights in Africa: Scaling Up Access to Contraception and Safe Abortion (2023- 2026) syftar att öka utbud av och tillgång till högkvalitativa preventivmedel och produkter för medicinsk abort i Afrika söder om Sahara.

Det övergripande målet av insatsen är att bidra till framsteg mot universell sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa genom att leverera 29 037 864 Couple Years of Protection (CYP) mellan
april 2023 och december 2026, och förhindra uppskattningsvis 5 056 214 oönskade graviditeter, 42 347 mödradödsfall och 8 057 656 osäkra aborter i Afrika söder om Sahara.

DKT kommer att uppnå detta via tre (delvis
nya) delmål;
1: Förstärkt distributionskedja genom att öka tillgången till moderna preventivmetoder och säker abort
2: Utökad tillgång till SRH-information
och tjänster
3: Förbättrad kvalitet på SRH-vården genom kapacitetsuppbyggnad

Geografiskt fokus;
Fransktalande Väst- och Centralafrika (FWACA): Benin, Burkina Faso, Kamerun,
Tchad, Elfenbenskusten, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau (portugisisktalande), Mali, Mauretanien, Niger, Senegal och Togo.

Engelsktalande Västafrika (AWA): Liberia, Sierra Leone, Gambia och Ghana
Landprogram: DR Kongo (DRC) och Moçambique (stöd till DKT landskontor

Förutom det regionala SRHR teamet
kommer ambassaderna i Kinshasa och
Bamako att bidra till programmet (genom att direkt finansiera programverksamheten i DR Kongo och Mali). The Strengthening Reproductive Health and
Rights in Africa: Scaling Up Access to Contraception and Safe Abortion (2023 - 2026)
programme's aim is to increase the availability, accessibility, affordability and supply of high quality contraceptives and medical abortion
products in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The overall objective of the intervention is to contribute to progress towards universal sexual and reproductive health and rights by generating 29,037,864 Couple Years of Protection (CYPs) between April 2023-December 2026, contributing to an estimated 5,056,214 unintended pregnancies averted, 42,347 maternal deaths averted, and 8,057,656 unsafe abortions averted. DKT has identfied three outcomes in its theory of change to achieve these results:

1: Strengthened supply chain by increasing availability of modern contraceptive methods and safe abortion
2: Expanded access to SRH information and services
3: Improved quality of SRH care through capacity building

The following countries will be included in the programme through a mix of regional and country programmes:

1. Francophone West and Central Africa (FWACA): Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, Côte d'Ivoire, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea Bissau (Portuguese-speaking), Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal and Togo.

2. Anglophone West Africa (AWA): Liberia, Sierra Leone, Gambia and Ghana.

In addition to the Regional SRHR team, the embassies in Kinshasa and Bamako will contribute to the programme (directly funding the programme activities in DRC and Mali). The overall impact of the intervention is to contribute to progress towards universal sexual and reproductive health and rights by generating 29 million Couple Years of Protection (CYPs), averting 5 million unintended pregnancies, 42,300 maternal deaths, and 8.1 million unsafe abortions across sub-Saharan Africa over the four-year time period.
