USAID Kulawa

USAID Kulawa is the USAID Resilience in the Sahel Enhanced II (RISE II) Health Services Delivery activity in Niger (2020-2025), which works to improve access to and use of quality health services, strengthening ownership and management by communities, local government, and service providers. USAID Kulawa—meaning “care” in Hausa—strives to close the equity gap (the difference in abilities to access services) in maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH), family planning/ reproductive health (FP/RH), and nutrition service access and use. This collection of resources highlights USAID Kulawa’s evidence-based programming package of integrated health interventions and services used to reach the project’s results: -Increase availability of and accessibility to quality health services, including for youth. -Improve systems for quality of care in health services delivery. -Enhance integration in health services delivery. -Increase technical ability and management capacity of local organizations in the health sector. This collection compiles programmatic information and results, implementation research evidence, case studies, technical briefs, tools, and other resources for implementers and project managers that can help improve health interventions in communities and in healthcare institutions.
