Overview Of The Sexual And Reproductive Health (SRH) Program Zambia has a high maternal mortality ratio (278 deaths per 100000 live births) in part due to unintended pregnancies and unsafe abortions. About 45% of married women use contraceptives and an additional 21% have an unmet need for family planning. Total demand for family planning among currently married women increased from 45% in 1992 to 69% in 2018. Yet the contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR) among currently married women age 15-49 is 50% with only 48% using a modern method. Only 9% of married women of reproductive age are using LARC and 10% of unmarried women of reproductive age are using LARC; married contraceptive users use less effective short-acting methods like injectables and pills. In addition maternal and newborn commodities are essential for sustained for a sustained reduction in maternal and neonatal mortality. CHAI Zambia is working in collaboration with the Ministry of Health to develop best practices of country-led reproductive health product introduction and supply chain management including to Identify and actualize government-led best practices for product introduction The goal is to actualize more efficient effective routine government led product introduction that can continue without partner support.

This may require engagement with the private sector where relevant to ensure that public and private systems are leveraged for greater sustainability and efficiency of product introduction. Test and iterate best practices through introduction scale-up and sustained access to reproductive health product(s) Additionally introduction and scale-up of a reproductive health product will be used as a test case to set up the processes and to identify opportunities to optimize the management and supply of the entire reproductive health product portfolio.
