The PATH-JSI DMPA-SC Access Collaborative (AC) invites you to a virtual discussion to highlight the strengths and gaps of monitoring scale-up in the context of the AC sustainability tracker indicators. This webinar will focus on findings from Madagascar, Nigeria, Uganda, and Zambia, touching upon:

• National goals for DMPA-SC introduction and scale-up.
• In-country perspectives on the value proposition of DMPA-SC.
• Suggested indicators for use in tracking the scale-up of a new product.

This research was conducted as part of the AC’s broader learning agenda* and focused on the potential risks to scale-up that could arise as new products or service innovations are integrated in family planning (FP) programs. While demand for DMPA-SC including self-injection, has increased, efforts to scale up self-injection are being constrained by inconsistent supply of DMPA-SC, which is impacting uptake and provider engagement and compounding challenges with availability at the last mile.

This discussion will be moderated by Dr. Adewole Adefalu, Country Coordinator Nigeria, DMPA-SC Access Collaborative, JSI.

Speakers include:

• Tinu Taylor, Director and Head Reproductive Health, Department of Family Health, Federal Ministry of Health, Nigeria
• केटलिन कर्नेलिस, Director, DMPA-SC Access Collaborative, PATH
• Nicole Danfakha, MEL Technical Advisor, DMPA-SC Access Collaborative, JSI
• Ebony Fontenot, Deputy Director and MEL Lead, DMPA-SC Access Collaborative, JSI

Participants will have the opportunity to pose questions and share their country experiences.

Simultaneous English-French interpretation services will be available.
