7. Background / Context (National Priorities)
• FP 2020 Commitment Objective by FGN:
– Achieve mCPR of 27% by 2024 (previous target was 2020)
• FP 2020 Nigeria Priorities
– FP Commodity and service expansion: DMPA-SC, PPFP,
Hormonal IUS and Progesterone vaginal ring
– Financing for FP including innovative approaches and resource
tracking through basket funds expansion to include states, BHCPF
(Basic Healthcare Provision fund) and Health Insurance
– Integrated Supply chain management and use of appropriate
technology (including the NHLMIS) for strengthening LMIS and
end to end visibility of commodity data
– National FP Blueprint revision and state CIPs development
(embedded with right based approaches and including FP in
humanitarian)
– Review of enabling policies for improves Adolescent and Youth FP
information and services
8. Background / Context (CP Priorities)
• UNFPA Strategic Plan 2018-2021 (Transformative Results)
– Zero unmet need for FP, Zero preventable maternal deaths, Zero
GBV and HTPs
• Nigeria 8th CP (2018 -2022) Deliverables:
– Percentage of facilities with no stock out or modern contraceptives
in pat 3 months Baseline: 77% Target: 80%
– Number of new users of Family Planning services Baseline:
8,600,000 Target: 13,600,000
9. Strategic approach/Innovation
• Consolidate on UNFPA’s convening power for FP on existing/familiar
platforms and leverage on strategic partnerships from recent engagements:
– Annual FP Stakeholders’ Consultative Meetings
– National FP Conference
– Facilitate Parliamentarians’ Platform to facilitate budget allocation for FP
– FP Technical Review Meetings
– National FP Conference
• Emphasize the economic benefits of FP in engaging with key stakeholders:
– Push the DD agenda in collaboration with the PD Unit
– Follow through with engagements on Governors’ Forum platform
– Facilitate engagements with parliamentarians
• Advocate for and facilitate a translation of an enabled environment (i.e.
policies, guidelines), national and global commitments to implementation
• Enhance synergy and integration with other programme units to deliver on
FP/RHCS commitments and transformative results:
– Adolescents and young people
– Rights-based approaches
– Male involvement
• Generate evidence for FP/RHCS programming, breaking new grounds and
scaling for impact (i.e. research, surveys, etc)
• Ensure that Supply chain management includes more procurement in line
with preparedness for humanitarian action and consolidation of role in the
national implementation of the LMIS
10. Priority Interventions 2020

• Last Mile Delivery of contraceptives to 17 states
using the IMPACT Model and 3PL (3 states)
11. Key Resources and Focus
• UNFPA Supplies Programme (Flagship)
– Procurement of contraceptives
– Capacity building
– Surveys
• DFID – LAFIYA Project
– Procurement of contraceptives
– Last Mile distribution
• Norwegian SRH for Girls Project (FP Component)
– Capacity building of health workers
– Service delivery
12. LAFIYA PROJECT (OVERVIEW)
• The 5-year DFID-Funded LAFIYA Project (2019-2020) proposes to

19. Challenges (Systems)
• Finance—Increased investments and funding for procurement
, distribution and storage of contraceptive commodities
– Current gap for 2020 is estimated as US$5.3 million
– States require financial and technical support for distribution of
contraceptives following removal of user fees
– Funding for increasing warehouse storage space and for
renovation/rehabilitation required
• Health Systems—
– Weak Supply Chain and limited downstream HR capacities
– Workforce capacity development especially for Long Acting Methods
– Task Shifting (focus on rural areas)
– Electronic LMIS
• Demand—
– Demand creation and increased advocacy for FP to address social
issues limiting access
20. Challenges (Operational)
• Inability of manufacturers to meet global demand for some
contraceptives
• Limited resources for the implementation of the NHLMIS
(National Health Logistics Management System)
• Late release and incomplete release of Government
