Impact 2 (v3) An innovative tool for estimating the impact of reproductive health programs Overview Aisha Dasgupta Head of Impact Team, Marie Stopes International

Measuring what we do Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International2 Counting commodities and services Understanding wider health & social impact

What are the strengths of Impact 2? Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International3 Excel-based Open-source Flexible Innovative

Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International4 (a) Enter service provision (past/future) (b) Set goal based on CPR, additional users, or market share Impact 2 calculates services Estimated women using family planning Increasing CPR, pregnancies, maternal deaths averted, etc.

Family planning impact

Impact 2 allows you to look at two time-frames Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International6 Annual: snapshot of impacts that happen in a given year impact from services provided in that year impact from LAPM clients who received services in past years, but are estimated to still be using the method Service lifespan: impacts that will happen over multiple future years, from services provided in a given year Number of future years impacts happen over depends on mix of LAPMs

Timeframe example Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International Annual impact in 2011 = impacts from these users Service lifespan impacts in 2010 = impacts to women who received services in 2010 over multiple years

Increasing market share versus increasing CPR Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International8 Market Share?Increasing CPR An organization can increase its coverage without having any impact on national level contraceptive use. Impact 2 helps show this difference.

Client profile results - Increasing CPR Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International9 Sustain a baseline users (changes based on start year selected) Reach adopters to sustain % point contribution (because of population growth) Reach more adopters to increase CPR

Additional users Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International10 FP2020 result– assess contribution to the 120m additional users Similar to CPR, but, no population growth factored in

Limitations Impact 2 (v3) Marie Stopes International11 Data availability – Infrequent – Often regional rather than national Reliant on assumptions: LAPM discontinuation rates, mortality rates, pregnancy rates, method failure rates, etc. Some input data is held constant over time due to limited data (e.g. unmet need) All results are only estimates and don’t measure real life
