SAYANA PRESS CHALLENGE; UGANDA
PROVEN INTERVENTION TO BE DISTRIBUTED
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
Briaze Health Initiative utilizes a ‘Private Practitioner Model’ to increase access and utilization of Sayana Press among women in Mukono District. The distribution model is unique because it seeks to train private practitioners on how to teach women to self-inject Sayana Press at their comfort.
BHI intends to reach 500 women in 3 months and 100,000 women in 5 years. Women seeking Sayana Press at private practitioners will pay a modest service fee to keep private practitioners motivated to give women transparent information and education.
