Assessment of Postabortion Care Services in Four Francophone West Africa Countries

Burkina Faso

This comprehensive report describes an assessment E2A conducted of efforts to strengthen postabortion care services in Burkina Faso, Guinea, Senegal, and Togo. The assessment, conducted in 2012, followed the implementation of action plans by these four countries for strengthening postabortion family planning services. The action plans were drafted by participants, policymakers, and program managers at a meeting in Saly, Senegal, in 2008, and refined under the Virtual Fostering Change Program for postabortion care.

The goal of the assessment was to highlight successes achieved to date as well as to identify the processes needed to strengthen and scale up postabortion care family planning services.

Focus Areas
