“As it is about that, they do as they please”
Accessing acceptable postabortion care (PAfor remains a major challenge in sub-Saharan Africa, where abortion is legally restricted and highly stigmatized, particularly for young and socioeconomically disadvantaged women. Evidence on the specific obstacles faced by these groups in rural and semi-urban settings is limited. This study explored women’s experiences with PAC quality in Kaya, a small town in Burkina Faso. We conducted in-depth intervie…

Uncertainties in health financing, service delivery, new technologies and disease burdens are hindering health systems abilities to maximize collective and scaled action to achieve health equity and social justice. In March 2025, a group of health policy and systems experts were convened by an organizati…
Embedding research capacity strengthening in multi-country studies in low-and middle-income countries
Research capacity strengthening (RCS) can empower individuals, institutions, networks, or countries to define and prioritize problems systematically; develop and scientifically evaluate appropriate solutions; and reinforce or improve capacities to translate knowledge into policy and practice. However, how to embed RCS into multi-country studies focusing on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) is largely undocumented. We used findings …
Searching for Needles in a Haystack
This study aims to describe the circumstances under which women obtained abortions in two sites, explore more nuanced approaches to classify abortion safety and examine the relationship between safety and self‐reported health outcomes. We analyze data on the most recent abortion or only abortion reported by 551 women in Nairobi slums and 479 women in rural Kaya ages 15–49 years within the three years preceding the study, recruited via respondent‐…
Community health workers' involvement in mother–child care during the 1st year after birth, in Kaya health district, Burkina Faso

In Kaya health district, Burkina Faso, community health workers (CHWs) were involved in mother and child care during the 1st year postpartum through home visits, outreach sessions and accompanying mothers to health facilities. The aim of this study…
