In support of the UN Commission on Life Saving Commodities, the Health Communication Capacity Collaborative Project (HC3), with support from UNICEF & USAID, is hosting a three-part webinar series focused on increasing demand for life-saving but underutilized reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health (RMNCAH) commodities. The first webinar in the series focused on integrating gender—particularly, working with men & boys— and the second one, to be held Wednesday, March 9 at 9 am EST, will highlight pioneering programs that have used Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) approaches to generate demand for RMNCAH products & services.
Technical experts in ICT alongside those in RMNCAH programming will share best practices and lessons learned in developing tech-enabled approaches either as independent, stand-alone programs or as a strategically integrated element that complements other program interventions to improve outcomes.
Moderator:
Heidi Good Boncana, Senior Program Officer, ICT & Innovation (CCP) and Co-Chair of the Global Digital Health Network (formerly the mHealth Working Group)
