How we work: deep listening, then organised action.
Our approach starts with the women and girls who use the system. We listen first, then translate what we hear into evidence, programmes and policy change. Two methodologies anchor the work - the Ask · Listen · Act Power Approach and the 4Ps Framework.
Ask · Listen · Act Power Approach
A participatory listening methodology that places women, girls, midwives and communities at the centre of decision-making. We ask what they truly need, listen without judgment, and turn what we hear into demands that move systems.
Ask
Begin every initiative by asking those most affected what they actually need.
Listen
Create safe spaces where women share challenges, hopes and demands on their own terms.
Act
Translate voices into evidence, advocacy and programmes that change outcomes.
The 4Ps Framework
People, Practice, Programming and Policy all want the same thing - better RMNH outcomes - but no single actor can deliver alone. The 4Ps Framework aligns them around the voices and self-articulated needs of women and communities.
People
Women, girls, families, midwives and communities - the real experts on the care they need.
Practice
How frontline providers and facilities deliver respectful, quality care every day.
Programming
Programmes designed with women - not for them - that respond to lived realities.
Policy
National guidelines, county budgets and accountability mechanisms that translate demand into delivery.
