This project aims to improve the health of Nigerian women and girls by supporting the National Contraceptives Basket Fund managed by the United Nations Population Fund. The project seeks to increase the quantities of quality contraceptives procured and distributed, and improve the efficient management of the national contraceptive supplies and logistical management system. This helps more contraceptives reach their final service delivery points where they can be accessed by women and girls. Project activities include: (1) procuring approximately one million contraceptives for women including female condoms and short and long term hormonal contraceptives; (2) conducting state-specific supply chain assessments and performance reviews to ensure family planning commodities reach all health facilities; (3) conducting state-specific inventories of family planning commodities and strengthening the capacity of state health management coordination platforms to avoid running out-of-stock of family planning commodities; (4) planning the distribution of state-specific commodities; (5) developing data placemats and data analysis for performance review; and (6) supporting supervision of the last stage of the distribution of commodities within states.
