Legacy Impact: West Africa

This summary highlights important efforts and achievements across seven countries through HP+ support: Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea, Mauritania, Niger, and Togo. In these West African countries, supporters have translated high-level policy commitments in family planning and HIV into concrete plans and actions. The specific circumstances of policy change vary from country to country but similar factors have spurred change across countries and health areas. One of these is the creation of effective stakeholder alliances, comprising government, donors, and civil society, which have propelled family planning and HIV onto the region’s policy agenda.
