The Family Planning Country Action Process Evaluation (FP CAPE) is a prospective, portfolio-level process evaluation that takes a complex systems look at a portfolio of family planning investments to improve modern contraceptive use.
FP CAPE is currently evaluating the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) family planning portfolios in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Nigeria. Our project builds lasting partnerships and strong capacity in the countries we work. Explore the country portfolios and interactive timelines to learn more.
FP CAPE draws on theory-based, realist evaluation approaches, and considers the complexity inherent in evaluating a large number of diverse program activities across different geographies and socio-political contexts. We use quantitative, qualitative and mixed-methods approaches to gather data and synthesize findings to test key theoretical assumptions.
All FP CAPE resources – insights decks, reports, briefs, presentations and journal articles – are listed in this section. For questions or further requests on the resources, please contact us.
FP CAPE offers insights decks, which feature a synthesis of portfolio-level findings and trends. The findings aim to help inform portfolio-level strategy and planning.
Reports and briefs feature detailed assessment of FP interventions and programs and impact of COVID-19 on the FP portfolio. We also list here reports from the annual meetings with BMGF grantees, program officers, and FP stakeholders in DRC and Nigeria.
FP CAPE contributes to the global FP and evaluation literatures using innovative methods and findings. We list here the presentations and posters that we presented at various conferences.
