Hosted by the ICFP Faith Subcommittee, this webinar will explore how data can strengthen Faith-Based SRH and Family Planning programming and improve engagement with families and communities.
This webinar will bring together three organizations working across Kenya and Nigeria to explore how different forms of dataand ongoing learning can strengthen faith-based sexual and reproductive health and family planning programs, from design andimplementation to monitoring, adaptation, and evaluation.
Faith leaders, faith networks, and faith communities play an important role in shaping family decision-making, health beliefs, care-seeking, trust in health institutions, and the social and gender norms that influence SRH and family planning outcomes. Programs working in these settings need data that captures both what is happening within the program and the broader community context in which implementation takes place.
What You Will Learn
The webinar will highlight how partners working to shift gender norms and improve SRH outcomes for girls and young women in Kenya and Nigeria are using data in practical ways across the program cycle. The discussion will focus on how different forms of evidence can help partners understand community context, track exposure to program messages, monitor changes in norms and trust, and assess how intentions and behaviors vary across geographies and change over time.
The Kenya and Nigeria examples will show how program data, implementation learning, and population-scale community datacan complement one another. Together, these forms of evidence can help programs target more effectively, adapt in real time, understand where progress is emerging, and identify where setbacks or resistance may be occurring.
Who Should Attend
This webinar is designed for faith-based organizations, faith leaders, and family planning implementers working in Kenya and Nigeria, as well as anyone interested in using data analysis to drive better decision-making in community health programs.
This is a practical, solutions-focused session — come ready to explore how data can work for your programs and the communities you serve.
