INTERVENTIONS IN NIGERIA, UGANDA, AND MALAWI
Driven by deep consumer insights, DISC supports women to take more control over their sexual and reproductive health. By doing so, women become active participants in their health systems and critical new partners for health providers.
As of October 2022, with joint funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and CIFF, we are expanding DISC’s intervention into Malawi, where we will work with consortium members MSI Reproductive Choices, Banja La Mtsogolo, Family Health Society, and Innovations for Choice and Autonomy (ICAN).” Learn More.
