In this online discussion, health professionals around the world will share their experiences with female condoms in diverse service delivery settings. This forum will be an opportunity to review the latest guidance on female condoms featured in Family Planning: A Global Handbook for Providers and exchange information and experiences with colleagues who are working to provide high-quality family planning services.

 

The discussion will be guided by the interest of the participants.  Topics will include integration of female condoms into family planning and HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment programs, opportunities for male involvement, strategies for encouraging commitment and participation of governments, donor agencies and civil society in female condom programming, as well as practical guidance related to female condom use and counseling. A variety of tools and resources on female condoms will be available for easy access in the online Resource Library. 

 

The Global Handbook was prepared through a unique collaboration between Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the World Health Organization (WHO), and over 30 organizations around the world.

 

This online discussion is sponsored by PATH, CHANGE and the INFO Project, based at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Communication Programs in collaboration with the Implementing Best Practices (IBP) in Reproductive Health Initiative and WHO.
