In Taraba State, TCI created a WhatsApp Group to provide constant mentorship and coaching to Family Planning/Reproductive Health (FP/RH) Coordinators, ranging in age (from 30 to 55-years old) and experience, on all aspects of family planning. The purpose of the WhatsApp Group was to stimulate real-time sharing of reports, facilitate exchange of best practices among the FP/RH Coordinators and provide problem-solving support by responding to challenges faced by the FP/RH Coordinators in record time. This technical brief outlines how WhatsApp is being used for continuous coaching, the steps that were taken to setup the WhatsApp Group, tips for sustaining use of the platform and results from its use.
