Resources in social development practice Vol. 1. Participatory design and monitoring of reproductive health projects

The aim of the document is to assist in improving the quality, responsiveness and efficiency of reproductive health programmes through the use of simple participatory tools, which systematically ascertain the needs of intended beneficiaries at all stages of the project cycle. The first section provides a brief guide to designing a participatory monitoring system, with the intended purpose being to provide accurate information on users and non-users views of reproductive health programmes to donors, programme managers and service providers.
