National policies, strategies, guidance, training materials, political commitment and donor support exist in many countries to adopt and scale up a range of EBPs, including postpregnancy FP, task sharing for FP and the promotion of social and behaviour change (SBC) for FP. While there has been some success in implementing these practices, coverage remains inadequate in many countries. To gain a better understanding of the factors that may be hindering the sustained scale-up of these interventions, WHO has developed an assessment protocol to systematically identify the health systems’ ‘bottlenecks’ to implementation and to then identify solutions and develop strategies to address them. Methods and analysis: A mixed method approach that includes document review, secondary data analysis (from surveys, service delivery data and case studies) and key informant interviews with policymakers, programme managers, health providers and community groups will be used to identify bottlenecks. This will be followed by a workshop to prioritise bottlenecks and characterise their root causes. Finally, solutions for the root causes of prioritised bottlenecks will be proposed. The protocol is structured in a modular format, with separate modules on postpregnancy FP, task sharing and SBC. Assessment themes and questions are informed by a wide body of literature on the three programmatic components, as well as studies on health policy implementation and scale-up. Ethics and dissemination: The protocol was exempt from ethical review by the WHO ethics committee. The findings of the bottleneck analysis will be presented at local, national and international conferences and disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and webinars.Item Contraceptive equity: insights from the progress in 48 FP2030 countries(The Lancet Global Health, 2025-01-01)
