MEASURE Evaluation Population and Reproductive Health (PRH) project  5-year (Feb – Jan. 2014) associate award under the MEASURE Evaluation project  Implemented by the Carolina Population Center at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill  Project objective: Ensure optimal demand and analysis of FP/RH data, and the appropriate use of such information to measure performance and to inform FP/RH interventions and policies.

Compendium of Indicators for Evaluating Reproductive Health Programs Published in 2002 by Jane Bertrand and Gabriela Escudero, this two-volume Compendium provides a comprehensive listing of the most widely used indicators for evaluating FP/RH programs in developing countries. Organized in three parts: I: Overview II: Indicators that crosscut programmatic areas III: Indicators for specific programmatic areas

Goal of the Compendium Update  Modify existing indicators to more accurately reflect current research and the kind of data that is actually being gathered and used  Add new core indicators  Remove outdated indicators  Create links to online resources for FP/RH indicators

Process of Updating Compendium Contact Experts Identify new technical areas Conduct lit. review Compile and analyze all feedback Draft or revise guidance

Results  Comprehensive and user-friendly online database with core FP/RH indicators searchable by cross-cutting or specific programmatic areas  Accompanying guidance for each indicator including definition, data requirements, purpose, issues, and gender implications (if relevant)  Links to nearly 100 documents and/or websites containing additional FP/RH indicators, organized by technical area

Newly Added Technical Areas  Health System Strengthening  Healthy Timing and Spacing of Pregnancies*  Malaria in Pregnancy  Obstetric Fistula  Cervical Cancer  Male Circumcision *USAID priority area  Community-based FP Services*  Long-acting Permanent Methods*  Integration: - FP/HIV* - FP/MCH* - HIV/Nutrition

Next Steps…  Finalize the RH Indicators Database, to be found on the MEASURE Evaluation website:  Continue to develop guidance on nearly 200 newly added indicators  Upon validation, include the core FP/HIV indicators  Remain abreast of modifications to indicators, additions, or deletions and revise the database accordingly

MEASURE Evaluation PRH is a MEASURE project funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) through Cooperative Agreement GHA-A and is implemented by the Carolina Population Center at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partnership with Futures Group International, Management Sciences for Health, and Tulane University.
