How can innovation help accelerate universal access to sexual and reproductive health services for women?
As countries work towards universal health coverage (UHC), innovative solutions are needed to address the intersecting challenges of HIV acquisition, unintended pregnancy, and unequal access to sexual and reproductive health services. Multipurpose prevention technologies (MPTs) offer a promising approach by combining protection against multiple health risks in a single product, expanding women’s choices and supporting more integrated, person-centred care.
Join experts from the Population Council and IPM South Africa for an engaging discussion on the latest advances in MPT development, with a particular focus on technologies that combine HIV prevention and pregnancy prevention. The webinar will explore the evidence behind these innovations, their potential to improve women’s health outcomes, and the opportunities and challenges involved in ensuring equitable access and successful integration into health systems.
Discover how MPTs can help translate scientific innovation into meaningful public health impact, advancing women’s autonomy, improving sexual and reproductive health outcomes, and accelerating progress towards universal access to comprehensive healthcare.
Join the conversation on transforming innovation into access for women.
