Improve health for ethnic minority women and girls through enabling access to safe, friendly abortion services at community level in Vietnam

  Microfinance and Community Development Institute               Vietnam

Microfinance and Community Development Institute (MACDI) implements community and school-based awareness campaigns and uses a new mobile app to increase women and girls’ knowledge and access to safe abortion in Vietnam. The mobile app will provide safe abortion information as well as chat-enabled safe abortion advice and referrals from health care experts. The app also integrates a micro-loan function for health-related purchases including safe abortion, health insurance and health examinations, and to enable access mobile phones. MACDI will also conduct training for health workers at both public and private health facilities.
