Increase availability of sexual & reproductive health products in SADC via regulation, pooled procurement, private sector aid
.The Southern African Development Community (SADC) region faces significant challenges in accessing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR), which hinder sexual and reproductive well-being. One of the reasons for these challenges is the lack of quality reproductive health commodities. The identified key constraints limiting access to those commodities include: 1. Lack of Pooled Procurement: The absence of a regional pooled procurement mechanism leads to limited access and availability of Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) commodities. Fragmented procurement processes across different central medical stores (CMS) cause delays, uneven distribution, and hinder efficient acquisition of SRH commodities. 2. Lack of regional Regulatory Harmonisation: There is a lack of regulatory harmonization of National Regulatory Authorities (NRA) in the region hindering the registration of SRH commodities across different member states in the SADC region. Divergent regulatory frameworks make it difficult to ensure consistent quality and safety standards for SRH commodities, resulting in delays and inconsistencies in their availability of qualitative SRH commodities 3. Insufficient Local Production Capacities
