KE-NCB-218-051-93197-173-10351 Forum for African Women Educationalists (Kenya) Make Way Rwanda context - FAWE Make Way - embracing intersectionality for health equity & justice. The Make Way programme (2021-2025) aims to ensure youth in all their diversity can fully realise their sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). We promote an intersectional approach to addressing SRHR issues. This means making overlapping vulnerabilities visible to understand their effects on people’s SRHR. We develop innovative tools and build capacities of other civil society organisations to advocate the needed policy and societal changes. Our partnership consists of Akina Mama wa Afrika, The Circle of Concerned African Women Theologians, Kenya, Forum for African Women Educationalists, Liliane Foundation, VSO Netherlands, and Wemos, and we work in partnership with the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We implement Make Way in Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Zambia, the Eastern and Southern African region and at the global level.

In the same line different government officials, policymakers and stakeholders who attended were prompted to make more targeted investments that tackle inequalities experienced by girls, especially while accessing their immediate support services in the face of conflict, teen pregnancies and other issues. The turn up was around 900 plus participants, youngsters mainly. Total value is 20 for the consortium. Based on new stakeholders/duty bearers. ​ This indicator counts only **YOUTH LED CSO.** A CSO will be counted if it is trained accordingly: - with customised training materials - that at least 1 staff member of the CSO attended - pre and post test is done Reporting for MFA is annually and on ++unique ++values (so only counting each CP (youth-led) once, over time).

Youth led organisation is an organisation that is predominantly staffed and or governed by youth The coordinating consortium partner organisation for this context will be reporting on the actual value over 2021. 16-12-2022: All consortium partner & 8 collaborating partners participated in the co-creation workshop, in which the topic of intersectionality and intersectional L&A was introduced. Materials for intersectional LA were developed in 2021, to start conduction trainings in 2022. In 2021, 1 awareness session was given on Disability inclusive SRHR to the CCG and CPS. Also an initial training was given on Social Inclusion and Gender to 8 CPs and consortium members, as part of a series to fulfill this indicator. Other consortium partner organisations have targets and will report on actuals for this indicator. The CSO allies are to be identified. All CPs will be involved in training of the CSO Allies. Workplan 2023 activity: Identify and bring together CPs allies for intersectional movement building ;workshop session on the criteria’s of organization to bring on board. Target is set under the context lead organisation. 19-04-2024: At the end of 2023 1 training targeted 20 youth led organisations members of AFRIYAN. They were provided with capacity building on different concepts and tools related to intersectional SRHR especially Meaningful Youth Engagement. This was an activity under the small grant of the Rwanda Make Way Consortium. The Make Way Consortium is planning to engage a youth network through which youth led organisations will be identified and trained. 28-04-2025: In 2024, we ended up not engaging new youth led organisations. However, Afriyan which is a network of around 20 organisations was still engaged for follow ups, further engagements were made as they played a key role in the High level youth-led meeting as part of international Youth day celebration. The final year will focus on sustainability. There are no new CSO to be trained. We do anticipate spill over effect from trained collaborating partners and trained allies.

Several meetings were held on this subject to seek allies and rally so that the government is accountable to make the CSE work. Meetings were held with the Rwanda education bureau, UNFPA mainly. CSE is still not well delivered, challenges such as limited number of trained teachers, the fact that it is not a stand-alone subject are still hindering it implementation hence a growing number of youths are not receiving the right information about their sexuality Target has been set for the whole programme period.

This means a gathering where right holders meet duty bearers face to face to hold them to account. 61 participants including top leaders of the district, legal authorities, sector leadership and Youth with compounded vulnerabilities from safe spaces and Make Way team attended. The meeting brought out persisting issues from safe spaces to top district leaders by youth with compounded vulnerabilities. Due to this interface, a sense of consciousness was cultivated from the district leadership's side. Several commitments from district leadership were made namely: Justice for victims from the Rwanda investigation bureau (RIB) and the police. The mayor personally made a commitment to follow the raised issue and to create a mechanism of actively receiving cases from YwCVs. Target has been set for the whole programme period.

Links to SCS041: # of advocacy initiatives carried out by CSOs, for, by or with their membership/constituency Rwanda’s 2015 DHS8 revealed that 25.3% of women aged 20-24 had experienced sexual violence; and that 4% of women aged 15-19 had experienced sexual violence in the last 12 months prior to the survey. In addition, 28% of women aged 20-24 and 24% of women aged 15-19 have experienced physical violence since age 15. The Violence Against Children and Youth Survey (VACYS) 2015-20169 showed that 12% of females and 5% of males aged 13-17 had experienced sexual abuse in the 12 months prior to the survey. This survey also showed that in children aged 13-17 34% of both females and males had first experienced sexual abuse at or before the age 13. Women with disabilities are two to four times more likely to experience partner violence than those without disabilities. Furthermore, the risk of experiencing all forms of partner violence and non-partner sexual violence increases with the severity of impairment. Qualitative data shows that disability-related stigma and discrimination, compounds women’s vulnerability to violence and hinders their ability to seek help. 10 By the end of year 3, youth with compounded vulnerabilities will be more visible and active in advocacy efforts for their SRHR, speaking out confidently and well-informed on their rights, and in particular, as relates to sexual abuse and exploitation. There will also be a strong focus on raising the awareness of and informing a wide range of actors on discriminatory practices towards youth with compounded vulnerabilities and on tackling biases and socio-cultural norms. Advocacy at this point is highly strategic and involves a broader set of actors, to include CSO allies and communities of young people in safe spaces, beyond the youth panel and youth groups affiliated with our collaborating partners.

In 2022: We are part of the review process of the Disability right law and the Human reproductive health law. Regarding the CSE, we are working on developing a policy brief. Currently we are in the process of doing an assessment with youth btoh in and out of school through the small grant to have primary data on gaps and needs that will feed into the policy brief. In 2023: For the 2023 L&A Plan we opted to focus on the the Disability right policy and the Human Reproductive Health Law. These are both part of 2023 advocacy plan that is being implemented by all the consortium partners of Make Way Rwanda. As of recent CCG has applied the IBPA tool to analyse the National policy of people with disabilities and related law. We did that with the whole of Make way alliance and later engaged a group of lawyers for a similar session.

The first year of the programme (2021) was used to recruit our collaborating partners. In the same year, the six (6) collaborating partners chosen saw their lobby and advocacy capacities (viz. issue analysis; goal setting; movement and coalition; stakeholder mapping; advocacy planning; communication; implementation). The findings were then used to inform an advocacy capacity building plan which has seen its implementation started in 2022, and will be continued in 2023. 26-04-2023: Lobby and Advocacy Training This was a 5 days intensive participatory training filled with activities designed to bring together the knowledge and innovations from all the partners. Among the group of participants were resourceful persons close to the relevant policy makers within the Ethiopian Ministry of health, religious leaders, and leaders of cultural institutions. By the end of the 5 days’ workshop, the Make Way Ethiopian Team had developed three lobby advocacy objectives which are connected to the Make Way Results and Indicators. The three lobby and advocacy objectives developed are to improve youth friendly SRH services, intersectionalisation of existing SGBV standard operating procedures, and the adjustments of programs and funding structures by donors and the government in line with the priorities of marginalised SRH needs. Based on the lobby and advocacy objectives, the collaborating partners will develop their work plans and receive small grants to facilitate their advocacy initiatives in 2023.

On 30 November, a youth panellist led an intersectional advocacy workshop using the Make Way MYE Tool with 26 Adolescent and Youth Councils from Addis Ababa operating at regional and national levels. The session oriented participants on how to operationalise meaningful youth engagement in their structures and highlighted how the findings of the ICSC could contribute to advocacy.

This indicator tracks the number of minoritised youth i.e youth with disabilities, sex workers, girls, LGBTQI+, etc. who participate in at least one engagement/meeting/workshop that involves making decisions on SRHR at any level; regional, national. If all the categories of minoritised youth participate in at least 2 decision making processes in a given year, then we would have achieved a degree of inclusion in youth participating in SRHR decision making processes. ​ Reporting is annually, on reach values (i.e. the number that is counted in year one, can also be included in the actual for the second year). ​ Links with SRHR indicator A: SRH002x - # of youth (other) who participate in policy and decision-making bodies who perceive their participation as meaningful The CCG is conducting a baseline study to establish the current number of minoritised youth participating in decision making processes on their SRHR, at all levels i.e national and district. Since the baseline value will be established in 2022, this data will guide in setting the target for 2023. Other consortium partners have target values for this indicator. For the Uganda context in total, we anticipate that 45 youth across the 5 districts will participate in decision making spaces at both national and regional level.

KE-NCB-218-051-93197-173-10329 Forum for African Women Educationalists (Kenya) Make Way Zambia context - FAWE Make Way - embracing intersectionality for health equity & justice. The Make Way programme (2021-2025) aims to ensure youth in all their diversity can fully realise their sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). We promote an intersectional approach to addressing SRHR issues. This means making overlapping vulnerabilities visible to understand their effects on people’s SRHR. We develop innovative tools and build capacities of other civil society organisations to advocate the needed policy and societal changes. Our partnership consists of Akina Mama wa Afrika, The Circle of Concerned African Women Theologians, Kenya, Forum for African Women Educationalists, Liliane Foundation, VSO Netherlands, and Wemos, and we work in partnership with the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We implement Make Way in Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Zambia, the Eastern and Southern African region and at the global level.

Targeted assessments are planned to support the working strategies in intersectional SRHR programming for adoption. The coordinating consortium partner organisation for this context will be reporting on the actual value over 2021. 16-12-2022: In 2021, 9 CPs were trained for the first time on taking an intersectional approach in their work. Capacity strengthening plans and integration of an intersectional approach in their programming took place over 2022. These values will be reported on in 2022. Evidence on what works in promoting Intersectional SRHR is documented and disseminated for replication. The Consortium and Collaborating partners integrate Intersectional SRHR in programming. This will lead to SRHR related policies being more intersectional. 30-04-2023: Collaborating partners that have been trained on, and starting using, intersectionalised tools from the Make Way SRHR Toolkit, have been reported under indicator MT SO 2.2. Therefore, the target set for this indicator for 2022 - i.e. 5 CPs in total - has been met; however, in order to prevent doubling counting from occurring in 2022, we choose to report on the collaborating partners in MT SO 2.2 and not again here. We are expecting that more progress towards this indicator, on adopting or adapting an intersectional lens in programming, will be reported on over 2023. The target is to have all the (youth-led) collaborating partners adopt and adapt intersectional SRHR in their programming. In 2023, there will be additional CSOs targeted to adopt and adapt an intersectional lens in their programming. The targets as reflected are cumulative values (so including the 2022 targets). 29-04-2024: In 2023, it was evident that all CPs conceptualised the intersectionality concept, though variations and depending on their niche. During joint monitoring and follow up activities, data and reports revealed that all CPs were integrating intersectionality in their work. This was supported by the work plans, activity reports, quarterly reports, monitoring reports and other communications. The CPs were using tools from the ISRHR Toolkit, especially the Youth Meaningful Engagement tools, Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, and ICSC. They were conducting engagement meetings, dialogue meetings and other L&A initiatives at district and community levels. However, the variation in the application of the tools revealed the need for further mentorship. Indicator MT SO 2.2 is measuring the organisations that have done work under this indicator, in order to prevent double counting. In the next round of reporting, more information will be provided on the ways in which our CPs and allies are making use of the tools and integrating an intersectional approach in their programming. 30-04-2025: CHSZ and other Country Coordinating Group (CCG) partners applied the Intersectional Budget Analysis Checklist during the 2024 budget process, resulting in actionable recommendations for SRHR budget allocations. This was a national process but it starts from the provinces (subnational). Recommended was an increase to the national budget of 15 percent.

Though the CPs have L&A capacity, their approaches are not fully intersectional and some have weaknesses in key elements e.g. safeguarding, youth engagement, gender equity and disability focus as well as experience with regional advocacy. ​ 16-12-2022: In 2021, trainings were held with 9 collaborating partners (CPs), and among consortium partners implementing in Zambia. Also, the CPs did their lobby & advocacy capacity assessments and performed their due diligence assessments. Based on these assessments, capacity strengthening plans have been developed; gaps and areas of improvement were mapped in 2021, and in 2022 the plans were used to work on capacity building of the organisations. The Zambia CCG and the Make Way collaborating partners SRHR Lobby and Advocacy initiatives are more intersectional. 30-04-2023: Note: After a critical review of the leadership of our collaborating partners that our consortium partners brought on board, against the targets set for 2022 (back in 2021), we can see some small discrepancies in which consortium partner is reporting on which CSO (and its leadership) vs the target values that were set for 2022 per consortium partner. For 2022, we targeted to have at least 70% of our collaborating partners to have implemented their capacity development plans. For 2023, we aim to target 12 new CSOs to develop and implement their capacity development plans; for 2023 this target value include CSOs other than the in 2021 contracted collaborating partners. 29-04-2024: The capacity development plants were completed in 2022, following the conducting of the needs assessment for all CPs. In 2023, all CCG partners conducted follow-up activities to assess how the capacity development plans were conducted and the gaps, that still needed support. The follow up activities revealed that all CPs were integrating intersectionality in their work. This was observed from the work plans, activity reports, quarterly reports, monitoring reports and other communications. The CPs were using tools from the ISRHR Toolkit, especially the tools on Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, and ICSC. They were conducting engagement meetings, dialogue meetings and other L&A initiatives at district and community levels. However, application of the tools varied and the extent to which they used them revealed need for further mentorship. FAWE started working together with 1 CSO ally (SRH022) in 2023. Mentorship on an intersectional approach, including sharing of the tools from the MW toolkit, was the main activity related to strengthening the capacity of these allies in 2023. Follow up is needed with these allies in order to educate and train them (more) on making use of the tools, as an example. The number was reached, and we are not recruiting any CPs. It is CPs that will bring on board allies. The project will continue to refresh the capacity and focus more on how to sustain the CPs. 30-04-2025: In 2023 we reported on the 7 allies that we started working together with, and whom we mentored on using an intersectional approach and the Make Way intersectional advocacy tools. In 2024 we did not start new collaborations and capacity strengthening efforts with new allies but we continued ongoing efforts instead. We do not foresee to train new CSOs for 2025. We will continue to build the capacity of our collaborating partners (who have already been trained and therefore counted).

For FAWE's CPs, financial regulations and policies of these organisations were strengthened. M&E systems of the organisations were strengthened. Filing and documentation systems were improved, safeguarding policies were put in place, for SEPA specifically. For both organisation, in their work plans and annual plans, the intersectionality component was missing; hence, terminologies were adapted to be more inclusive, and they included awareness activities to discuss what intersectionality means, which were done together with key stakeholders at different levels. Note: After a critical review of the leadership of our collaborating partners that our consortium partners brought on board, against the targets set for 2022 (back in 2021), we can see some small discrepancies in which consortium partner is reporting on which CSO (and its leadership) vs the target values that were set for 2022 per consortium partner.

The 2 trainings were held at Davinci lodge in Mufulira. Awareness was raised on the importance and why adolescents with disability should be included in accessing SRHR services. The NHCs and MOH staff were sensitised on inclusive service provision without leaving anyone behind, self-representation in the MOH committees and the barriers that causes exclusion and how they can be reduced. - Outreach with the adolescent focal point person to affirm disability inclusion: A CP conducted outreach to affirm disability inclusion in the district during the 4th quarter. 22 youths were reached 14 females and 8 males. The activity was done on the 10th of October 2024. There was increased knowledge on the importance of inclusion of PWDs in accessing SRHR. Youths with disabilities reached were very happy to learn about their right to access SRH. - Training on the Budget Process/ Cycle: A CP held a 2-day training on the budget process was conducted on the 20th and 21st of November 2024. 20 NHCs and youths were reached.

One of the issues marginalized youth face in accessing SRH services and products is walking long distances to health facilities. Revamping this health center will improve, access to marginalized youths who cannot access SRH services and products. | 30-04-2023: 2022 update: Two CPs of FAWEZA conducted awareness meetings (2) for duty bearers on SRHR-related policies such as "The Human Rights Act of 1998, Children’s Act, and the Children’s Code Act No.12 of 2022. The target was the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Education, and traditional leaders. The CPs further provided an overview of the global situation on SRHR especially the realization by many countries that marginalized youths and people were not accessing SRH services and products. This was conducted during the fourth quarter of 2022 in Kitwe and Zambezi respectively. Both traditional leaders (in Zambezi) and representatives of the MoH and MoE (in Kitwe) made commitments during/after these awareness meetings, which will need to follow up. The priority is on the organizations already in the SRHR space under the assumption that they will be more accommodative.

The objective of the activity was to review activities different stakeholders were conducting regarding disability inclusion especially in accessing SRH services by adolescents with disabilities. - One of the CPs; 47 participants (27 males and 20 females), the purpose of the meeting was to track the progress from the Intersectionality Community Score card which was conducted in June. It was discussed that MOH had continued working towards Attitude change, increasing the number of PWDs in safe spaces as well as lobbying for ramps and construction of safe spaces in health facilities. MOH and Civic Leaders are now working towards making the environment for PWDs more accessible and disability inclusive. - One of the CPs convened 2 stakeholders meetings, in Lusaka; 25 participants (15 females and 10 males) The health facilities represented included Kanyama First Level, Matero First Level, Chipata First Level, Chawama First Level and Chilenje Level one Hospitals including Mandevu Pediatric clinic and Mtendere clinic. In Ndola, the meeting had 25 participants (16 females and 9 males) at Fatmols lodge. The health facilities represented included, Hilcrest Clinic, Lubuto Clinic and Chipokota Mayamba Clinic, the meeting also had participants from 2 potential Make Way allies.

The consortium partners have the capacity to come up with the required toolkit. ​ 16-12-2022: In 2021, the co-creation workshops (materials) set the stage for intersectional thinking and for taking an intersectional approach in our lobby & advocacy work in Make Way. Then in 2022, the CCG Zambia and their CPs started using the materials from the SRHR toolkit in order to become more intersectional in their L&A approaches. The youth led organisations are key in reaching the target groups. The non-youth led are key in bringing the other players around the table for the establishment of a working movement. 30-04-2023: Note: After a critical review of the leadership of our collaborating partners that our consortium partners brought on board, against the targets set for 2022 (back in 2021), we can see some small discrepancies in which consortium partner is reporting on which CSO (and its leadership) vs the target values that were set for 2022 per consortium partner. However, over 2022, we have reached (and overachieved) our overall targets set of 5 youth-led CSOs and 4 non-youth-led CSOs. The target for 2023 includes the 2022 target values. For the Zambia context in total, 20 youth-led CSOs and 19 non-youth led CSOs will be targeted. We expect that each CCG organisation will bring on board at least 1 youth led CSO and each of the CPs will equally bring on board at least 1 youth led CSO. 29-04-2024: - The Intersectional Toolkit has 7 tools, namely Intersectionality, Accessible Communication, Intersectional-Based Policy Analysis, Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, Budget Analysis for Advocacy and Intersectional Community Scorecard (ICSC). The usage of the tools varied, with some tools being used more than others. - All 5 CCG partners used the Intersectionality-Based Policy Analysis (IBPA), Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, Budget Analysis for Advocacy, Accessible Communication and Intersectional Community Scorecard (ISCS). - All 10 CPs used Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, Budget Analysis for Advocacy and the Intersectional Community Scorecard (ICSC) tools in their respective spaces, at different times. - One of the CPs, from FAWE, is working with a youth led organisation who were already working with an intersectional lens, and they have started to include and adapt their own tools (among which a community scorecard) based on the tools in the MW toolkit (reported under SCS082 for 2023). -Youth Panelists equally used the tools on Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, and the Intersectional Community Scorecard (ICSC). -Both CCG partners and CPs need to create deliberate opportunities and platforms to share the tools with CSO allies and other partners, and educate them on the use of the tools.

The consortium partners have the capacity to come up with the required toolkit. ​ 16-12-2022: In 2021, the co-creation workshops (materials) set the stage for intersectional thinking and for taking an intersectional approach in our lobby & advocacy work in Make Way. Then in 2022, the CCG Zambia and their CPs started using the materials from the SRHR toolkit in order to become more intersectional in their L&A approaches. The youth led organisations are key in reaching the target groups. The non-youth led are key in bringing the other players around the table for the establishment of a working movement. 30-04-2023: - The iCSC tool has been used by at least 4 of our CPs, to conduct iCSC process in their respective districts. - All CPs have been trained on the YE tool and have been using this tool. Depending on the circumstances, parts of the tool have been used (e.g. how to engage youths in planning and execution of activities, or on how to engage youths in safe spaces). - Tw of our CPs have been asking the Circle on how to use the iSJA tool; the Circle organised a session on how to make use of this tool. One CP used the tool in Dec. 2022, and invited the Circle to join the session showing on how they used it. A biblical text, a selected scripture, was used for this exercise, and the tool was used in group discussions. The outcomes of these discussions were in the first place increased awareness of those participated. Secondly, with the outcomes of these discussions, the organisation went into communities and started discussing about topics related to SRHR that are present in these communities. Ways of reasoning were brought in based on what was discussed during the analysis of the scripture. From the discussions in the communities, you start looking for resources in the community that can help dealing with the issues concerned. - AMwA did an iSRHR training (Aug 2022). All CPs were trained, as well as a representative of each CCG from the consortium. At least two CPs used the Intersectionality 101 tool. In the same month, AMwA conducted Learning Space on Understanding Feminist Intersectional SRHR Advocacy, targeting heads of organizations from the CCG consortium name FAWEZA, CHSZ, VSO and The Circle. Moreover, an introduction for YP members was done on the toolkit, as they were present in the training. - CHSZ and Lusaka based CPs used a tool similar to the IBPA tool to to train monitoring disability inclusion in voluntary reviews. The target for 2023 includes the 2022 target values. For the Zambia context in total, 20 youth-led CSOs and 19 non-youth led CSOs will be targeted. We expect that each CCG organisation will bring on board at least 1 youth led CSO and each of the CPs will equally bring on board at least 1 youth led CSO. 29-04-2024: - The Intersectional Toolkit has 7 tools namely Intersectionality, Accessible Communication, Intersectional-Based Policy Analysis, Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, Budget Analysis for Advocacy and Intersectional Community Scorecard (ICSC). The usage of the tools varied, with some tools being used more than others. - All 5 CCG partners used Intersectional-Based Policy Analysis (IBPA), Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, Budget Analysis for Advocacy, Accessible Communication and Intersectional Community Scorecard (ISCS). - All 10 CPs used Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, Budget Analysis for Advocacy and the Intersectional Community Scorecard (ICSC) tools in their respective spaces, at different times. - One of the CPs, from FAWE, is working with a youth led organisation who were already working with an intersectional lens, and they have started to include and adapt their own tools (among which a community scorecard) based on the tools in the MW toolkit (reported under SCS082). - Youth Panelists equally used the tools on Meaningful Youth Engagement (MYE), Youth Leadership, and the Intersectional Community Scorecard (ICSC). - Both CCG partners and CPs needed to create deliberate opportunities and platforms to share the tools with CSO allies and other partners, and educate them on the use of the tools. This was not reported by any. Train to use materials from the SRHR toolkit on intersectional L&A 30-04-2025: This concerns FAWE Zambia and two collaborating partners.

In addition, most of such activities leave out those with compounded vulnerabilities. Target has been set for the whole programme period. Reporting on actual values will be done at mid-term and end-term. Reporting on unique values (counting once). 18-01-2024: Chesire and FAWEZA organized a meeting with different duty bearers, to explain the timelines of the ratification of the law (Africa Disability Protocol) and to help to define the different activities that we would need to do. The Ministry of Community Development and Social Services initiates the processes of signing and ratification of disability laws. Based on this, a cabinet memo is developed which is then submitted to the Ministry of Justice. The meeting was held in Dec. 2022. Based on this meeting, participants came up with a plan on how to ensure a work plan for advocacy. Other consortium partner organisations have targets and will report on actuals for this indicator. Target has been set for the whole programme period. Reporting on actual values will be done at mid-term and end-term.

Target for 2025 TBD in 2023. 17-01-2024: FAWE Zambia's two collaborating partners conducted interface meetings targeting duty bearers in their districts, in April. This created a platform for marginalized youths to present challenges regarding the availability and access to SRH services and information. Key issues highlighted were inadequate health staff, lack of infrastructure for youths to use during their meetings, and lack of Instructional Communication and Education materials in some health facilities. The duty bearers promised to attend to the raised issues but indicated that the change was the national budget for the Ministry of Health that was inadequate and in some cases did not have specific budget lines for SRH. | 30-04-2023: 2022 progress: Target values will be set for all consortium partners for 2025, in 2023, when the CSO allies are fully on board. We can then also report on advocacy initiatives carried out while making use of the intersectionalised tools.

At the beginning of the Make Way programme, none of the consortium partners had integrated intersectionality in the way they are doing their research and evidence building. 16-12-2022: Over 2021, no actuals to report yet. We would like to see one consortium partner to have examples of having integrated an intersectional lens into their evidence building, e.g., having an intersectional research framework, using intersectional data, using intersectional questionnaires, being more inclusive in their research process. For 2023, as context we will target 2 new organisations that will integrate an intersectional lens in their evidence building. In 2022, we had targeted 7 organisations to do so. FAWE will report on the actual of 2023 towards the target value of 1. In the actual it will be specified which organisations this will include. 29-04-2024: All Make Way consortium partners continued using an intersectional lens/tools in their evidence building for (joint) lobby and advocacy activities in 2023. This indicator necessitates a considerable amount of time due to the need for training in intersectionality within evidence building. Therefore, we are adhering to the same trajectory as in previous years, using the results we successfully achieved in prior years as a reference point to establish our targets for the current year. 30-04-2025: FAWE is included in the actual value. All Make Way consortium partners continued using an intersectional lens/tools in their evidence building for (joint) lobby and advocacy activities in 2024. Some examples of using intersectional lens/tools are: * Used the Intersectionality based policy analysis (IBPA) tool when developing the research framework and interview guides for a qualitative case study about the impact of IMF conditionalities in Zambia's healthcare. * Used the IBPA tool when developing feedback for the World Bank Group Gender Strategy, the Gender Toolkit, and providing feedback on an inception report of GFF mid term evaluation. * Used Meaningful Youth engagement tool to deliver a training for the CCG Zambia and other partners * Used the intersectional See Judge Act (ISJA) tool in collaboration with our collaborating partner in Kenya to campaign against violence against women and girls at regional and global level. * AmwA, VSO, LF wrote a Make Way statement for the CSW focusing on intersectionality, SRHR and the empowerment of gender diverse people and women; LF provided suggestions for the zero draft of the EU position paper, focusing on SRHR, intersectionality and disability; In addition, our technical partners in Rwanda and Ethiopia used intersectional lens to develop evidence supporting in-country lobbying and advocacy efforts. Partner in Rwanda had conducted an assessment on the Enablers and Barriers to Inclusive and Intersectional SRHR Services for Adolescents: A Multi-dimensional Analysis of Health System Infrastructure, Policy, and Healthcare Provider Capacity in Rwanda Partner in Ethiopia used Make Way checklist for budget analysis in advocacy, to conduct a structured and systematic evaluation assessing the alignment of budget allocations and expenditures with the sexual and reproductive health (SRH) needs of marginalized communities, emphasizing gender considerations in Ethiopia.

At the beginning of the Make Way programme, none of the consortium partners had intersectional internal strategies and processes. 16-12-2022: In 2021, as part of the activities from their action plan, FAWE organised sensitization (awareness-raising) sessions on intersectionality and how it can be included in the work of the organization. We would like to see one consortium partner to have some kind of actions in place to include intersectionality in internal strategies and policies, e.g., an inclusive gender strategy, recruitment policy, decision-making process etc. ​ 29-04-2024: All consortium partners continued the implementation of their action plans for more intersectional internal strategies and processes (previously reported on in 2021). This particular indicator typically requires some time to achieve, as it pertains to the adoption of strategies and processes, and often involves an iterative process. The current indicator value has been set at a level that the consortium is highly confident in attaining. Other consortium partners have targets. 30-04-2025: Wemos' technical partner in Rwanda had conducted an assessment on the Enablers and Barriers to Inclusive and Intersectional SRHR Services for Adolescents: A Multi-dimensional Analysis of Health System Infrastructure, Policy, and Healthcare Provider Capacity in Rwanda (report in SharePoint). This assessment was done with an objective to determine the barriers and enablers to inclusive and intersectional SRHR services for adolescents and recommend appropriate actions to stakeholders.
