We are planning to convene five expert panels during the 2006-2007 year. Each panel will bring together a small group of invited experts for discussion and consensus development on the topic of interest. Products from the work of these panels will be a series of published "White Papers" on the respective topics and training curricula for use in FPMTC training events.
This year we are beginning a series of panels on the topic, "The Cost of Male Sexual and Reproductive Health Services."
The proposed panel meeting topics are:
Panel #1: - Defining Male Sexual and Reproductive Health Services and Establishing a Method to Measure Costs of Male Sexual and Reproductive Health Services.
Panel #2: How to Measure the Costs of Male Sexual and Reproductive Health Services: Who is Involved and What are the Programatic Issues.
Panel #3: Developing a Plan to Execute Measuring the Costs of Male Sexual and Reproductive Health Services
Panel #4: Reveiw and Interpret Results of Findings
Panel #5: -Identifying Models for Levels of Integration for Programs of Various Scope.
2006 Expert Panel 1 Proceedings
The FPMTC convened a working group February 13-14, 2006 in St. Louis, MO to assist in developing recommendations for organizational structure, capacity, and program components that favor male participation in family planning programs. A brief description of the meeting is included here and a more detailed white paper will follow.
