NGO Partnerships
A Key Ingredient for Success
Local, regional and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are key to increasing family planning demand and services. NGOs are also essential partners for TCI.
Local and regional NGOs can support TCI in several ways:
- Promote TCI to interested government agencies and highlight the goals and benefits of participation
- Support cities in the pursuit of TCI funding and implementation of Initiative programming, if identified by participating cities
- Apply directly to TCI as an individual organization or as a group
International NGOs can support TCI in the following ways:
- Serve as a regional hub in new countries and regions to expand TCI's model
- Collaborate with TCI through existing reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health mechanisms to adopt its tools and approaches to support family planning program implementation
- Advocate for TCI among donors, technical working groups and other family planning forums to promote a new approach to meeting FP2030 goals
