Description
Description Pathfinder International is a global leader in sexual and reproductive health. We place reproductive health care at the center of all that we do—believing that it is not only a fundamental human right, but is critical for expanding life opportunities for women, families, communities, and nations. In Uganda, our areas of intervention include Reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (RMNCAH), Women led climate resilience (WLCR), Adolescent and youth economic empowerment, and communicable and non-communicable disease control. Pathfinder’s bold vision is a future where everyone, even in the most challenging environments, has what they need to be healthy, thrive, and live to their full potential. Pathfinder received funding from the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, through the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office, FCDO – Kampala, to implement the ‘ Empowering Women for Better Reproductive Health Outcomes Programme’ (EMPOWER) from February 2025 to January 2030. EMPOWER is being implemented in 50 districts in Uganda, to strengthen public sector health systems' capacity to deliver maternal health services. The project mentors health workers on family planning, maternal health, child health, and generates demand, while tackling myths and misinformation about family planning, harmful traditional practices and gender norms that deny women agency over their own bodies. The interventions aim to contribute to a reduction in preventable deaths of mothers, babies, and children, and women and girls’ empowerment through choices about whether and when to have children.
