Webinar: Using ICT Approaches to Generate Demand for RMNCAH

This March 9, 2016 webinar highlights best practices and lessons learned from pioneering programs that used Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to generate demand for RMNCAH products and services. This is the second in a three-part webinar series that HC3 is hosting in support of the UN Commission on Life Saving Commodities with support from UNICEF and USAID. The series focuses on increasing demand for life-saving but underutilized reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health (RMNCAH) commodities. The first webinar focused on integrating gender, in particular working with men and boys. The third webinar will be hosted later in 2016.
