Emergency Contraception for Conflict-Affected Settings: A Reproductive Health Response in Conflict Consortium Distance Learning Module

Emergency Contraception for Conflict-Affected Settings: A Reproductive Health Response in Conflict Consortium Distance Learning Module has been developed to meet the need for increased awareness and knowledge about emergency contraception (EC) among health service providers working with refugee and internally displaced populations (IDPs)[note]. A distance learning method helps to increase access to information about EC, promotes flexibility, assures quality information, empowers learners and is cost-effective.[note] Based on such advantages, the Reproductive Health Response in Conflict (RHRC) Consortium chose this method to provide practical information on EC to local projects in developing countries. The RHRC Consortium is working to mainstream EC by increasing awareness and knowledge and improving access to and demand for EC in appropriate program locations.
