Community-based access to health services & products is important, because of #gender inequalities that limit women’s ability to access facility-based care. Likewise, women’s ability to decide the timing & spacing of their pregnancies is a critical component of gender equality.
Since May 2018, #APC has been implementing activities in 3 sub-counties in #Uganda. Interventions include community-based #familyplanning; convincing faith-based institutions to endorse & promote FP uptake; & making grants to local organizations. ow.ly/I9CW50vX0T3
