Malawi: Distribution of DMPA at the Community Level- Lessons Learned

Authors: Hamblin, K., & Msefula, M.

In 2008, Malawi piloted the distribution of the injectable contraceptive DMPA by Health Surveillance Assistants. This report presents lessons learned, during the initial training and implementation roll-out, which will be valuable for other countries planning similar community-based distribution systems. The report pays particular attention to the supply chain implications of distributing family planning commodities to “the last mile.”
