This project seeks to increase global health programming effectiveness, including sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) programming. The Canadian Partnership for Women's and Children's Health (CanWaCH) implements this project. Project activities include: (1) hosting online knowledge exchange fora and an interactive database of international projects; (2) identifying Canadian experts to support improved measurement of results for Canadian efforts in developing countries; (3) promoting international standards in tracking and measuring results and facilitating related training opportunities; (4) supporting collaboration among organizations, including civil society organizations, academia and the private sector; and (5) providing Canadians with information on reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health through public engagement and/or outreach activities. The project expects to benefit the CanWaCH membership of over 90 Canadian organizations working to improve women's, adolescents' and children's health in developing countries; ultimately benefiting women, newborns, children and adolescents targeted by the CanWaCH membership programming.
