A. Organizational Background:
EngenderHealth is a leading sexual and reproductive health and rights organization working in 15 countries around the world including Nigeria, to achieve gender equality in and through sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). Our programs ensure equity and compensate for historical and social disadvantages that have prevented women and girls from operating
on a level playing field. We work through gender-equitable approaches to ensure women and girls can access quality sexual and reproductive health information and senvices. Ensuring equitable access often means encouraging self-reflection among EngenderHealth staff members, facility-based health providers, community health workers, and the communities in which women and girls live to challenge their own stereotypes and biases and contribute to gender-transformative change. Through our programs, we ensure that the structures and systems that women and girls routinely interact with (health, education, legal, community) are conducive to the empowerment of women and girls.
B. About the Project:
The USAID funded MOMENTUM Safe Surgery In Family Planning and Obstetrics project (“the project”) implemented by EngenderHealth seeks to sustainably support the Government of Nigeria (GoN) in strengthening surgical safety within maternal health (MH), by promoting evidence-based approaches and testing new innovations.
C. Project Goal
To increase awareness of equal access to and quality of informed, voluntary and consented sate surgical care for cesarean delivery, prevention and treatment of obstetric and iatrogenic fistula, per partum hysterectomy and voluntary uptake of LARC/PMs.
