Overview
This brief presents key implementation components for several family planning (FP) High Impact Practices (HIPs) and details the process of harmonizing these elements across three projects: the Data for Impact (D4I) project, the Research for Scalable Solutions (R4S) project, and The Challenge Initiative (TCI). The key implementation components are agreed upon standards to implement a practice and ensure it is high impact. The HIPs for which key implementation components were developed are: Community Health Workers (CHWs), Immediate Postpartum FP (IPPFP), Post-abortion FP (PAFP), Pharmacies and Drug Shops (PDS), and Mobile Outreach.
Each project developed an original set of implementation components that, while diverse in purpose, shared a common foundation in the HIP briefs. The projects came together to align on unified language and content to create key implementation components, signifying a joint commitment to improving the efficacy, adaptability, and evaluation of high-impact family planning practices.
