Social franchising has been shown to improve access to quality family planning and other high impact health services. However, establishing and operating a franchise network can be costly, and trade-offs must be managed between achieving scale and maintaining quality.
SHOPS Plus documented and analyzed a range of social franchising programs to identify operational adaptions aimed at better leveraging health market opportunities, reducing programming costs, and achieving service delivery scale. Findings informed a conceptual framework that will assist franchise implementers in determining whether opportunities exist to replicate similar adaptations in their country context.
At a webinar hosted by SHOPS Plus on November 3 at 9:00 a.m. EDT, presenters from Marie Stopes International and Population Services International will share promising operational approaches from several country franchise networks. They will also provide a brief overview of the conceptual framework for replicating these approaches. Following the presentations, there will be an opportunity to ask questions.
