The HIV/AIDS tool kit was developed in the IPPF/WHR regional office and tested in collaboration with IPPF Member Associations in Honduras, Peru, Haiti, Jamaica, and Suriname. The tool kit includes a questionnaire to measure staff attitudes and knowledge around HIV/AIDS and an accompanying implementation guide, answer key, and code book. A database for the questionnaire is also available. These tools have been tested with small samples, and have been useful in collecting data to inform new programs and improve existing services.

Monitoring and evaluating the implementation of the World Bank’s Reproductive Health Action Plan 2010–2015.

Approved in 2010, the Reproductive Health Action Plan (RHAP) marks the Bank’s renewed commitment to sexual and reproductive health.

Building on recommendations of an evaluation of the Bank and consultation with civil society, the RHAP sets out the Bank’s approach to increase its effectiveness in promoting and supporting national policies and strategies for reproductive health at national level.

One year after its approval, it is time to take stock of the RHAP, as part of a longer process to regularly track its delivery.

By means of this publication, IPPF/WHR aims to contribute to young people’s exercise of their rights by presenting five articles written by experts. These essays include thoughts and recommendations concerning key elements that foster the development of adolescents’ capacities. We are referring specifically to their ability to make autonomous decisions regarding their sexual and reproductive health in a confidential environment. The articles particularly stress the aspects that must be taken into account in the context of health services provision, including comprehensive care services for unwanted pregnancies. The latter is a topic of special interest for IPPF/ WHR and its Member Associations, and a prevailing problem in Latin America and the Caribbean.

The Handbook for Budget Work in Advocacy Projects is a tool to facilitate the process of incorporating budget elements into Advocacy planning. We do not expect organizations to be able to conduct in-depth analyses of public budgets thanks to this handbook. Rather, we offer a way to determine the steps necessary to identify and monitor specific areas of expenditure that contribute to achieving the political change sought by a particular Advocacy project. To use this manual, it is advisable to have developed the Advocacy project following the methodology provided in the Handbook for Advocacy Planning, from IPPF/WHR’s Advocacy Tools series.
