Social Franchising of Sexual and Reproductive Health Services in Honduras and Nicaragua - Full Report, English

Through its Global Partnership, international sexual and reproductive health (SRH) organization, Marie Stopes International (MSI), has pioneered the use of social franchising to increase the reach of its SRH services into the community, while ensuring the high standards for which the Partnership is known are maintained. This document outlines the outcome of three franchising projects implemented by Partners of MSI in Honduras and Nicaragua. The projects were designed to pilot full and partial social franchising models as part of an initiative to test and develop alternative forms of delivering quality SRH services by a non-governmental organization (NGO).
