CCP is playing a major role in the revitalization of Indonesia’s national family planning program under a new Gates Foundation-funded project. In 11 districts, we are working with the women’s branches of Indonesia’s two largest Muslim organizations to incorporate family planning and reproductive health information into prayer groups, Koran readings and other continuing activities. Pre-kindergarten and day care networks are also designated avenues for reaching young mothers.
The Improving Contraceptive Method Mix (ICMM) Project began in Indonesia in October 2012. Funded by USAID and the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), with additional support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, this four-year project is investigating the impact of applying targeted advocacy and knowledge management (KM) activities to improve the contraceptive method mix in two Indonesian provinces: East Java and Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB). ICMM brings together the experience and program strengths of local Indonesian organizations, using Advance Family Planning-Indonesia’s (AFP-I) methodology, and enhanced by the KM expertise and tools of the Knowledge for Health (K4Health) Project. ICMM is implemented under K4Health through CCP’s Indonesia office, drawing upon the technical skills of ICMM partners: The Center for Health Research/University of Indonesia and the Cipta Cara Padu Foundation.
