Urban Reproductive Health Resource Center: Request for Feedback
The Urban Reproductive Health Initiative (URHI) is comprised of country-based consortia that will design and implement innovative programs that seek to increase contraceptive prevalence rates in some of the fastest growing cities in select countries of sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. These populations are important because cities have a high level of unmet reproductive health needs and a growing poor population, with about one in three urban residents living in slums.
The Measurement, Learning, and Evaluation (MLE) project will evaluate the impact of the URHI country programs, disseminate research findings, and promote the exchange of lessons learned from country consortia and other country-level projects working in urban reproductive health.
In this effort, the MLE project is creating an online urban reproductive health resource center to foster the exchange of knowledge about this increasingly important topic. We anticipate launching this online resource in October 2009.
To ensure the web site meets the needs of the reproductive health community, we are asking you to complete the online survey:

The survey should take only 5 to 10 minutes to complete. At the end of each page, click on the arrow to go to the next page.
This is an anonymous survey; your answers will be kept confidential.
Thank you for your participation!
