In Nigeria, inconsistent availability of modern contraceptives is a pressing issue, contributing to high rates of unintended pregnancies. Despite significant demand, many public health facilities regularly experience complete stockouts of key contraceptives, such as implants and injectables.

The Access to Medicines Initiative aims to eliminate supply chain issues as a barrier to access by streamlining data collection, optimizing distribution, and filling gaps in procurement. We seek to create sustainable systems that ensure continuous availability of family planning commodities in public health facilities. This will improve health outcomes for mothers and infants, as well as help create economic opportunities for women and their families.
