  • Empowering Women Health Providers Through Social Franchising Stories from Kenya and Uganda Summary
    Empowering Women Health Providers through Social Franchising Stories from Kenya and Uganda Summary While social franchising interventions were designed to achieve positive health outcomes and were not intended to improve gender equality, franchisors in some countries target primarily female cadres such as midwives. As a result, social franchising may unintentionally help women providers overcome gender-related barriers. SHOPS Plus visited social franchisees in Kenya and Uganda to better understand how social franchising has affected the lives of women franchise owners. This brief analyzes the findings from interviews with women providers using the Social Franchising Empowerment Framework. It finds that social franchising empowers women providers, specifically within their ability to make and implement decisions and perform tasks as well as in their self-confidence. Based on the findings, the brief concludes with recommendations on how social franchises and the private sector overall could take a more intentional approach to improving women’s empowerment outcomes. Keywords: Africa, family planning, gender, networks and franchising, private provider networks, provider access to finance, provider networks, provider quality, quality assurance, quality improvement, social franchise, sub-Saharan Africa Photo: Julius Caesar Amooti Kasujja Recommended Citation: Hastings, Mary Beth and Intissar Sarker. 2019.

    University of California, San Francisco Global Health Sciences Program Case Study Highlights DKT International’s Clinical Social Franchising Model Unique social marketing effort supplies 25 percent of the privately provided modern contraceptives in one of Southeast Asia’s largest and most diverse countries Washington, D.C., (November 13, 2012): DKT International, one of the largest private providers of family planning products and services in the developing world, was featured in a September 2012 case study by the University of California, San Francisco Global Health Sciences program for their highly innovative social marketing effort in Indonesia. Branded as Andalan (meaning trustworthy in Indonesian), the program positions DKT Indonesia as a reliable, one-stop source of quality, affordable contraceptives and reproductive health products for thousands of midwife clinics that are the country’s primary source of OBGYN-related healthcare. The University of California, San Francisco Global Health Sciences program (GHS) provides global health training to students who aim to become future leaders in developing country healthcare as clinicians, policy experts, educators, researchers, and development professionals. This latest report in the GHS “Clinical Social Franchising Case Study Series,” demonstrates how the Andalan program, started in 2000, helps serve tens of thousands of women in Indonesia. DKT Indonesia provides one-quarter of the country’s contractive products, including the sale of more than 132 million condoms, 21 million oral contraceptives, 11 million injectable contraceptives and 170,000 IUDs in 2011. “The Andalan program leverages two effective contraceptive distribution strategies: driving demand through mass media and non-traditional communication, and improving commodity availability via regular contact with some 15,000 midwives each month.
