About the Injectables Access Collaborative
The Injectables Access Collaborative (AC) provides data-driven technical assistance, coordination, resources, and tools to ensure that women and girls have increased access to DMPA-SC and self-injection as part of an expanded range of contraceptive methods, delivered through informed choice programming. The AC builds on the successes of its previous phase to advance the introduction and scale-up of DMPA-SC, including self-injection, to expand access and choice to a range of high-quality contraceptive options for women and girls. This project is led by PATH in collaboration with CHAI, inSupply, Jhpiego, and JSI Research & Training Institute Inc.
Background
The Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (FMOH&SW) with relevant stakeholders developed DMPA-SC training guides in 2019. The training guides were developed to build the capacity of healthcare providers on the use and administration of DMPA-SC (Depo-Medroxyprogesterone Acetate Subcutaneous), a self-injectable contraceptive method and to serve as a very important tool in facilitating the comprehensive roll-out of the DMPA-SC Strategic even to the hard-to-reach areas of the country.
Since the development of the guides, there have been significant advancements and changes in the DMPA-SC Strategy and best practices that have implications on service delivery.
To ensure the guides remain current, relevant, and aligned with the latest National DMPA-SC & Self Injection Expansion and Sustainability Strategy and best practices, the Injectables Access Collaborative is working in partnership with implementing partners and other stakeholders to support the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare in the revision of the National DMPA-SC/SI training guides. Updating the guides will provide healthcare providers with the knowledge, skills, and resources they need to deliver high-quality family planning services, ultimately improving reproductive health outcomes in communities and the country at large.
