Sayana Press injectable contraceptive.  

Learn more about the Sayana®  Press Challenge and why training health providers to administer Sayana® Press can be particularly valuable for women who prefer injectable contraceptives but don’t have regular access.

 

DISTRIBUTION MODEL INNOVATION

Society for Impact Health Initiative (SIHI) is a non-profit company working to meet the unmeet need for contraceptives for underserved populations by scaling up distribution of self-injectable contraceptives in rural Zambia.

The SIHI model uses an evidence-based approach and targets trained community-based distributors in injectable contraceptives to distribute self-injecetable contraceptives and train women on self-injection within their community. The pilot will launch in Mpika district of Muchinga province in Zambia before scaling nationwide.

 

PILOT AND SCALING GOALS

  • Provide 1,920 women with access to Sayana Press during the pilot

  • Raise $80,000 during the pilot to support future scale

  • Reach 250,000 beneficiaries by the end of year 2
