The WHO/IBP Network is a consortium of NGOs and civil society organizations working in family planning and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). Established in 2000, the network was created to minimize duplication among partners developing tools and guidelines to strengthen FP and SRHR programs.
Over the years, the network has expanded to more than 25,000 individuals and over 150 organizations, the majority of which are based in the Global South. In 2021, the IBP Network undertook a strategic process to intentionally shift power within its governance structure. As a result, the Chair organization-previously a large international NGO-is now a youth-led organization based in Tanzania. Similarly, the Steering Committee, once composed primarily of global INGOs, now includes a diverse mix of local partners and organizations working across a broader spectrum of SRHR issues.
The network continues to leverage its extensive membership to host communities of practice, convene virtual consultations, and create platforms that elevate local voices and lived experiences on the global stage.
As the global health landscape changes funding challenges, threats of mis and disinformation and the power of artificial intelligence can have serious implications for social and behaviour change in sexual and reproductive health and rights.
The skills-building workshop will provide participants with practical strategies to engage communities and share evidence in SRHR. This includes learning how to cultivate communities of practice, use storytelling for impact, and intentionally shift power toward more equitable partnerships.
Session Topics: Each session topic will be facilitated by an expert in one of the key areas. We will aim to have some language diversity as well. The session will be Knowledge Café style with participants able to learn from each session.
