Learning Circles are highly interactive small group-based discussions designed to provide a platform for global health professionals to discuss what works and what doesn’t in pressing health topics. In the most recent cohort in Anglophone Africa, the focus was addressing emergency preparedness and response (EPR) for family planning and sexual and reproductive health (FP/SRH).
Le programme Jeunes en Vigie vise à combler les lacunes dans la disponibilité et l'accessibilité de services de santé sexuelle et reproductive de qualité pour les jeunes femmes en intégrant une perspective féministe et des droits de l'homme dans ses audits sociaux. Ce reportage sur le programme Jeunes en Vigie est l'un des trois reportages sur la mise en œuvre sélectionnés pour la série 2024 sur l'élargissement de l'accès à la santé sexuelle et reproductive, développée par Knowledge SUCCESS et le réseau IBP/OMS.
The Jeunes en Vigie program aims to address gaps in the availability and accessibility of quality SRHR services for young women by integrating a feminist and human rights perspective into its social audits. This feature story on the Jeunes en Vigie program is one of the three implementation stories selected for a 2024 series on expanding comprehensive sexual and reproductive health access, developed by Knowledge SUCCESS and WHO/IBP Network.
A Call to Action for stakeholders to join forces to advance PPFP and PAFP was launched in December 2023. To provide a deeper understanding of the events and insights that led to this action, Knowledge SUCCESS interviewed key members of the coalition behind it. This post highlights the pivotal moments in their collaboration, lessons learned along the way, and a glimpse into what the future holds.
The Most Significant Change (MSC) technique—a complexity-aware monitoring and evaluation method—is based on collecting and analyzing stories of significant change to inform adaptive management of programs and contribute to their evaluation. Based on Knowledge SUCCESS’s experience with using the MSC questions in four evaluations of knowledge management (KM) initiatives, we have found it to be an innovative way to demonstrate the impact of KM on the ultimate outcomes that we are trying to achieve—outcomes like knowledge adaptation and use and improved programs and practice.
Knowledge SUCCESS applies a systems perspective to our KM capacity strengthening work. Learn about what the project found during a recent evaluation on how our work has strengthened KM capacity and improved KM performance among FP/RH stakeholders in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa.
Knowledge SUCCESS conducted an assessment of how knowledge management was integrated into Costed Implementation Plans in five West African countries. The findings revealed multifaceted ways that KM contributes to stronger FP/RH outcomes and more efficient use of limited resources.
The ICPD30 Global Dialogue in June 2024 marked 30 years since the first ICPD in Cairo, Egypt. The dialogue brought together multi-stakeholder participation to unpack the role of technology and AI in societal challenges.
Advocacy often takes unexpected forms, as demonstrated by a "Fail Fest" that led to the adoption of two significant resolutions by eight Ministers of Health from the ECSA region. At the 14th ECSA-HC Best Practices Forum and 74th Health Ministers Conference in Arusha, Tanzania, this innovative approach encouraged candid discussions on AYSRH program challenges, sparking impactful outcomes.
In this blog, you'll learn how to create meaningful youth engagement in AYSRH by recognizing adolescents and youth as active participants. Discover how fostering trust, leveraging technology, and promoting equitable power dynamics can transform AYSRH initiatives into more effective and personalized experiences for the youth they serve.
