Since 2010, community health workers have provided education and services as part of the MOH’s package of basic health services and practices, known as PIHI.

To align digital solutions that improve family planning service (FP) delivery among community health workers, APC is producing a generic set of resources that FP stakeholders can use as a starting point for developing FP mobile applications. APC is spearheading this effort in collaboration with international and local NGOs, technology firms, donors, and ministries of health.
