This program brief describes the work conducted by the Evidence to Action (E2A) Project’s grantee organization in Ethiopia—the Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus Development and Social Services Commission (EECMY-DASSC)— which took place from June 2014 to June 2016. E2A provided grants and technical assistance to faith-based organizations in Ethiopia (EECMY-DASSC), Kenya, and Uganda that are members of the African Christian Health Association Platform. The three grants supported faith-based organizations to mobilize religious leaders in support of family planning, improve the quality of community- and facility- based family planning services and referral networks, and connect service providers with religious leaders and other stakeholders to accelerate the uptake of contraceptives.
