Plan Strategique 2011-2015 de Lutte Contre le Paludisme au Burkina Faso

The performance review of the implementation of interventions against malaria in Burkina Faso during the period 2002 to 2010 showed significant progress in the fight against malaria across the country.

Despite the decisions to change policy to include the adoption of combination therapies, the care home case (PECADO), universal LLIN distribution and residual spraying (IRS) and the encouraging results from those implementations, major efforts were still needed to face up to this major endemic.

The 2011-2015 strategic plan provided a unifying framework for the mobilization of all resources. It aimed to achieve, by 2015, national and international objectives in the field of the fight against malaria. To do this, seven strategic areas were identified in this plan: improving the case management, strengthening prevention of malaria in pregnant women and children, the fight against vectors, strengthening communication, management of the supply of antimalarial drugs, strengthening the monitoring and evaluation, research and improved program management.

Tékponon Jikuagou Pilot Results

Tékponon Jikuagou aimed to develop and test a scalable package of social network activities to engage men and women in discussion and reflection about unmet need for family planning.

The package of activities works with and through influential and connected network actors who may be more effective in diffusing new ideas and mobilizing public dialogue than formal leaders or health workers alone. The intervention aims to increase acceptability of discussions concerning family size and family planning use. It also aims to create an enabling environment for family planning use by increasing the perception that social network members approve of family planning use.

This brief presents results of a cross-sectional survey conducted with women (1,080) and men (1,080) in union interviewed prior to and 18 months after the pilot intervention began. Statistical tests – means testing and odds ratios from logistics regressions – determined whether the changes were statistically significant after controlling for potentially confounding factors including age, education, religion, number of children, and number of co-wives.

The pilot findings demonstrate that a social network package with multiple, interlinked components addresses the challenge of effectively reaching both women and men.

Tests de messages itératif IVR au Niger/ Interactive Response Voice messaging (IVR) in Niger

La réponse vocale interactive (RVI ou IVR en anglais), un système interactif de messagerie vocale, a été sélectionnée pour cibler le segment identifié comme étant proactif pour la santé; les femmes qui sont déjà intéressées à utiliser ou ont même essayé une méthode de PF. Six messages ont été testés au moyen d’appels téléphoniques interactifs. Ces deux messages les plus efficaces ont été sélectionnés et testés. Ces messages se rapportaient aux obstacles à l’utilisation de la contraception exprimés par des agents de santé en bonne santé; en particulier des rumeurs sur le comportement négatif des prestataires de santé, et des idées fausses sur les effets secondaires des méthodes contraceptives. Les messages ont été améliorés et finalisés grâce au système RVI et utilisés pour développer des spots radio qui ont été diffusés à l’échelle nationale. Le rapport est disponible en anglais et en français.

Interactive voice response (IVR), an interactive voice phone messaging system, was selected to target the segment identified as healthy proactives; women who are already interested in using or have even tried a FP method. Six messages were tested through interactive messaging phone calls. This two most effective messages were selected and further tested. These messages related to barriers to contraceptive use expressed by healthy proactives; specifically rumors about the negative behavior of health providers, and misconceptions about side effects of contraceptive methods. Messages were improved and finalized through the IVR system and used to develop radio spots that were aired nationally. Report is available in English and French.

Topline Results of Rapid Assessment of Barriers to Family Planning Use

This study was carried out to assess the social and cultural similarities between Benin and Mali with regards to barriers to family planning (FP) use. This study was undertaken because a FP project intended for Mali was relocated to Benin after the Malian coup in March 2012. Since the countries had similar, but not identical, cultural and social characteristics, this study was carried out to assess the differences and similarities.

The rapid assessment was carried out in six villages in Couffo, Benin.This information was collected to guide efforts to adapt social network intervention approaches, originally designed to address unmet need in Mali, for the Benin context.
