Integrated Family Planning and Immunization Services in Senegal
While many Senegalese mothers visit health facilities to immunize their newborns, far fewer discuss family planning options with a health worker. Integrating family planning counseling into immunization services is a promising practice to address reproductive health needs in the extended postpartum period. We developed a behaviorally informed model that integrates these two services to help more women access the family planning option that is right for them.

A360 Emerging Insights for Design
Add To FavouritesA360 Emerging Insights for Design
This deck summarises insights gathered by the A360 team for designing the Smart Start program in Ethiopia. It shares what the design team learned about young girls’ motivations behind SRH-related behaviour and decisions. The deck starts with giving information about the methodology behind insight generation, and then goes into findings about young girls’ behaviour, cultural norms, and traditional contraception messaging. Finally, creators of the deck share themes that they thought were relevant for consideration, and offer recommendations on how the intervention can be designed. This is a good tool to understand how insight generation happens in an HCD process, but may not necessarily be helpful to someone who is unaware of HCD.

A Girl with a Plan! Reimagining Contraceptive Services with and for Adolescent Girls in Ethiopia, Nigeria and Tanzania unlocks hope… and rapid contraceptive uptake
Add To FavouritesA Girl with a Plan! Reimagining Contraceptive Services with and for Adolescent Girls in Ethiopia, Nigeria and Tanzania unlocks hope… and rapid contraceptive uptake
This brief highlights how the A360 blueprint developed from insights gathered in Ethiopia (Smart Start), Nigeria (9ja Girls) and Tanzania (Kuwa Mjanja), were not only used to reframe messaging around contraceptive use, but also applies the design mindset of empathy in developing solutions tailored to meet a wide array of girls with unique needs. It presents case examples of this based on the three countries, outlining approaches used to engage, inspire and serve adolescent girls.
