Description

The proposed outcomes for this component of the programme are:
i) Young women and men with improved knowledge and more positive attitudes towards family planning.
ii) Key influencers are taking action that improves access to family planning for women and adolescents.
iii) Adolescents included in decision making process and interventions to generate demand for family planning.
iv) Community of people with improved knowledge and positive attitudes that challenges gender discrimination and exclusion of adolescents in decision-making.
v) Evidence of what works with similar interventions and in the programme is systematically used to inform policy and link with programming in the health sector including the supply-side support being undertaken by the UN agencies.
vi) Increase family planning uptake among the population adolescents (younger than 20 years) including 16,080 new users of contraceptives.
The pilot should test an approach that if successful should lead to an additional 24,000 people in rural areas using contraceptives as a result of supply-side interventions. We expect two thirds of these to be adolescents, which is why one of the outcomes is that 16.080 additional users will be less than 20 years of age.
