Abstract:
Ministries of health (MOHs) are largely responsible for achieving the commitments that their national governments have made as part of the FP2020 initiative, which aims to enable 120 million more women and girls to use contraceptives by 2020. The ministries' ability to meet FP2020 goals depends on the strength of their stewardship functions, including collaboration with and support they generate from other actors and sectors. This brief describes how ministries of health can strengthen linkages with the private sector to achieve FP2020 goals. It is part of a series of three briefs produced by the USAID-funded Health Policy Project to provide guidance to MOH officials and members of parliament (MPs) on three different approaches to strengthen MOHs’ stewardship functions for FP2020. The other briefs in the series are Stewardship for FP2020 Goals: The Role of Parliamentarians, and Stewardship for FP2020 Goals: MOH Role in Improving FP Policy Implementation.
