2015/16: A year of sustained output for DKT Ethiopia
DKT Ethiopia distributed 54 million condoms, 4.5 million cycles of oral contraceptives, 3.6 million injectable contraceptives, and 2.6 million emergency contraceptives, among other products, from July 2015 – June 2016.
Together, DKT’s product distribution amounted to 3.2 million CYP.
Servicing 15,000 pharmaceutical and clinical outlets on a routine basis, DKT Ethiopia’s national salesforce continues to meet and expand demand for the organization’s products.
“We have managed to meet the private sector’s demand for HIV-prevention and reproductive health products in much of Ethiopia,” says Abdu Ebrahim, DKT Ethiopia’s M&E Officer.
“There have been improvements in addressing unmet need for family planning and maternal mortality, yet the data still show considerable gaps.”
“We still have a lot of work to do.”
