Global leadership in the application of state-of-the-art (SOTA) approaches for LA/PMs
The RESPOND Project engages a broad range of participants from the family planning (FP) and reproductive health (RH) community to advance the strategic role that long-acting and permanent methods of contraception (LA/PMs) can play in responding to unmet need, enabling FP programs to better achieve their goals, and helping individuals achieve their reproductive intentions.
RESPOND identifies programmatic practices that work and are relevant to LA/PM programming. We organize and widely disseminate that knowledge for application both within the RESPOND Project and beyond.
