Notice Title

Women's Integrated Sexual Health - Dividend (WISH-Dividend)

Notice Description

Women's Integrated Sexual Health - Dividend (WISH-Dividend) is a new programme and successor to FCDO's WISH programme, that is designed to support targeted countries in Africa to be more ambitious on improving Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) for women and girls.

Lot Information

Lot 1

WISH Dividend will ensure the results and investments made under WISH are protected and built on, empowering an additional 7m women and girls to choose if, when and how many children they have. It will support countries to accelerate progress towards a demographic transition, exploiting the narrow window of opportunity presented by an increasing working age population to drive inclusive economic growth. WISH Dividend will have 3 components - Sexual and Reproductive Rights, Independent Third Party Monitoring and Demographic Transition. The FCDO intends to award a Commercial contract for the Sexual Health and Reproductive Rights component. This component will focus on two main areas. 1. Supporting the scale up of access to comprehensive SRH services and information including voluntary modern methods of family planning, sexually transmitted infections and HIV testing and treatment, safe abortion and post-abortion care, support to survivors of SGBV and FGM, with a Leave No One Behind approach targeting the poorest women and girls, adolescents , people with disabilities and Fragile and Conflict Affected Settings (FCAS). This will be delivered through public sector facilities, private sector provision including social franchising and outreach mechanisms. Services will be complemented by innovative and context-driven activities to address harmful social norms and engage marginalised groups, drawing on the lessons learned on what works through WISH. 2. Supporting policy reform and strengthening systems to enable targeted African countries to improve SRHR and mobilise domestic resources to sustainably improve the lives of women and girls through better access to quality essential SRH services, laying the foundation to transition away from external assistance. Country selection and funding allocation for the SRHR component will be confirmed during development of the terms of reference for the market and will depend upon final approved budget. This is not a call for competition or tender at this time. This is a Prior Information Notice to notify interested parties of FCDOs intention to hold an Early Market Engagement Event at 1000 hours BST on Thursday 7th July 2022. The event will introduce the component to the market, bringing together prospective implementing partners from across local and international markets and use these discussions to inform key design decisions as we develop the programme.
