WEBINAR: The Implementation Science Initiative

This webinar focussed on the important work being completed by the Implementation Science Initiative (ISI) through SISN’s partnership with the International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie)under a Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) grant.

The webinar was moderated by Isabelle Michaud-Letourneau, SISN Consultant and Senior Technical Lead for the ISI. She introduced the ISI and how the project applies SISN’s principles of implementation science (IS) to improve the delivery of iron-folic acid supplementation (IFAS) programs through antenatal care for pregnant women in Kenya and Uganda.

Following this overview, Twaha Rwegyema, Project Coordinator at URC in Uganda and Brian Njoroge, Project Coordinator at FHI 360 in Kenya, presented their experience to date identifying and addressing bottlenecks within these programs.

We are pleased to share a FREE recording with you, as well as a PDF version of the slides.
