Our Impact

  • 100 000

    doses of Sayana Press distributed

  • 70 000

    women reached in northern Nigeria

  • On-the-ground Research

    As part of our commitment to rigorous evidence, we administer surveys to our target audience before and after our pilot to assess our impact on usage, adherence, and attitudes toward family planning.

  • Keystone Pilot Project

    Six-month-long pilot campaign in Jigawa, Nigeria encompassing a training curriculum, technology-driven monitoring services, and the distribution of 2400 doses of contraceptive to rural users.

  • Stakeholder Engagement

    Connecting with local stakeholders, including state governments and health advisors to generate demand for contraceptive use and to dispel misinformation around the topic.

Cost-effectiveness

Recent research and modelling by the implementation group Rethink Priorities suggest that we may currently avert one DALY for approximately $5 USD, with projections indicating this figure could drop to $2 USD by the end of 2025.

Similarly, their analysis estimates that the cost of saving a life, now around $393, might decrease to $148 by the same time.

This research models that our intervention is about 20 times more cost-effective than unrestricted cash transfers and could be up to 53 times as effective by late 2025.

Meanwhile, there are other benefits to our intervention. Every dollar spent on access to contraception leads to a $120 ROI of social, economic, and environmental benefits. This makes it 24x more efficient than investing in girls’ education ($5 ROI).

Operations in the past year have concentrated on Jigawa and Kebbi. In 2024 we expanded to Sokoto and Kano states - all of which are located in northern Nigeria.

These states suffer from a high unmet need for family planning and are facing frequent stockouts of contraceptives.

Our partner organisation, NANA, has also previously worked in those states, which helps us build relationships with local communities based on years of trust.
