Family Planning Brochures

These brochures serve as a way of reinforcing information about family planning. They are distributed in Nigerian communities to remind community members of the benefits of birth spacing at all levels of society from the individual to the family and community level.

The brochures were designed to be state-specific with images that resonate with cultural and religious teachings in each state.

Breakthrough ACTION COVID-19 Nigeria

Due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in December 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) had prioritized 13 African countries including Nigeria as the most vulnerable countries for importation of COVID-19.

Since the confirmation of an index case in the country, the Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH), Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) and WHO commenced the coordination of a response and preparedness plan. One of the components of the plan is Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE) with an Incident Action Plan (IAP), which articulates communication objectives and illustrative activities proposed by the NCDC.Through partnership and collaboration,

Breakthrough ACTION Nigeria will work to support the Nigerian Government and RCCE country-level pillar leadership (currently the Health promotion division of the FMoH, NCDC, WHO and UNICEF) with technical assistance to adapt and contextualize plans, tools, templates, and materials to support the preparedness and/or response activities required by Nigeria.

How Digital Health Platforms Connect Women to Maternal Health Services

In 2017, Fistula Care Plus (FC+) partnered with Viamo to provide a free phone hotline that screens women for fistula in Nigeria and Uganda. This blog describes how the program was designed and implemented.

Using interactive voice response (IVR) technology via mobile devices, a caller could flash into a toll-free number and receive a call back. The IVR algorithm screened women for fistula and provided recorded messages about how and where to get treatment. FC+ launched this hotline to target particularly hard-to-reach women living with fistula who have not been reached through existing community outreach efforts. The hotline is available in English, Igbo, Hausa, and Pidgin in Nigeria, and Luganda in Uganda.
