Together with the Technical Group on Reproductive Health (GT/SR) and other stakeholders, AFP and Equilibres et Populations have selected the following advocacy priorities this year:
- Obtain a dispensation from the Ministry of Health to authorize certified nurses, auxiliary midwives and certified midwives to dispense long acting methods (implants and IUDs)
- Obtain authorization of community health workers (community health workers and relais) to make the initial prescription of pills
- Ensure that urban communes (Ouagadougou and Bobo Dioulasso) and their arrondissements integrate funding for family planning into their regional/communal development plans.
