TERMS OF REFERENCE (TOR) FOR ADVOCACY AND COMMUNICATION STRATEGY CONSULTANCY a) BACKGROUND A 2020 study by Guttmacher found that between 2015 and 2019, majority (56%) of pregnancies in Ghana were unintended and about a third (36%) of those pregnancies resulted in abortions. According to the Ghana Statistical Service (2022), about 15.2% of female adolescents in Ghana aged 15-19 have ever been pregnant, underscoring the prevalence of teenage motherhood as shared. This confirms that the work of Family Planning (FP) is crucial and unending. Ghana is determined to ensure equitable and timely access to quality family planning (FP) information, products, and services among all people of reproductive age.

CONSULTANCY:  WEB DESIGN AND MAINTENANCE FOR THE YOUNG AND WISE AFRICA PLATFORM  Background Ghana has for decades had a young demographic base, ranking highly across the African region. However, this favourable demographic dividend is defied by significant challenges in health, education, and socio-economic factors. In health particularly, according to the most recent Maternal Health Survey in Ghana (2017), teenage pregnancy accounts for 11.2% of all pregnancies, and unsafe abortion is most common among young people aged 20 and under (29.9%). Contraceptive use among sexually active women is lowest among young people (9.8%); teenage pregnancy represents 11.2% of all pregnancies. Additionally, there has been a sharp rise in the prevalence of HIV among young individuals. In our ongoing efforts to provide Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) education and information to the youth of Ghana, the Planned Parenthood Association of Ghana (PPAG) recognizes the pressing need for innovative and engaging communication methods. To this end, the Young and Wise Africa platform was conceptualized and developed as one of PPAGs powerful tool to effectively deliver SRHR information to young people across the nation.  This visually engaging platform was designed to resonate with young people, enhancing their receptiveness to and participation in the educational content therein. It also seeks to provoke positive outcomes, including increased knowledge acquisition, improved decision-making, and positive behavioural changes, substantiating the efficacy of this approach. Moreover, the digital health landscape continues to advance rapidly, and the Young and & Wise Africa platform must remain modern and relevant to its target audience. For instance, innovations such as self-care have emerged as a viable avenue for service delivery, and the platform must be adjusted with new features and functionality to enable it to support such. New features such as artificial intelligence and advanced analytics have been proven to be pivotal in enhancing service delivery and must also considered significantly.  Purpose of the Consultancy The consultant or company will be contracted to enhance the existing Web-based platform and develop dynamic new features to ensure high quality delivery of digital health education and services to young people. Scope The selected consultant will be responsible for the following tasks:

• Conduct sensemaking sessions with PPAG to understand and conceptualise the current state of the Y&P and the requested additions and configurations

1. Background and Rationale

Three percent of Ghanaians are classified as Persons with Disability (PWDs), as they have one form of disability or another. Generally, the percentage of Women and girls with Disability (WGDs) (3.1%) is slightly higher than males (2.9%). Educational levels differ among PWDs by sex and residence. The percentage of WGDs with no formal education is higher than males among both urban and rural dwellers. The majority of females (58.3%) with disability in rural areas have no formal education compared with 40.7% of their male counterparts.  (2010 Population and Housing Census Report on People with Disabilities). Unemployment amongst Ghanaian females estimated by ILO through modelling indicated 6.83 as of 2019. Its highest value over the past 28 years was 10.78 in 1999, while its lowest value was 4.73 in 2007.

TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR ABORTION ACCOUNTABILITY PROJECT       ENDLINE EVALUATION

1. Background

PPAG with funding from the Swedish Association for Sexuality Education (RFSU), the Sweden IPPF member Association, has been implementing a 5-year project aimed at ensuring that Comprehensive Abortion Care is accessible, affordable, and utilized by all. The project ran from 2018-2022 and was implemented in six (6) districts in three Regions (Central Region, Ashanti Region and Northern Region). In 2022 the project was extended to 2023 and is expected to conclude at the close of the extension. Over the period, the project implemented several targeted interventions to improve the knowledge of duty bearers, community leaders, service providers, and community members on comprehensive abortion care, to enable them to make informed decisions. A key component of the project was advocacy toward including and implementing comprehensive abortion care into the annual district work plans and budgets. As the project ends, there is a need to conduct an end-line evaluation to assess the overall project performance.

TERMS OF REFERENCE 1) Background Ghana has for decades had a young demographic base, ranking highly across the African region. This favourable demographic dividend is however defied by significant challenges in health, education, and socio-economic factors. In health particularly, according to the most recent Maternal Health Survey in Ghana (2017), teenage pregnancy accounts for 11.2% of all pregnancies, and unsafe abortion is most common among young people aged 20 and under (29.9%). Contraceptive use among sexually active women is lowest among young people (9.8%); teenage pregnancy represents 11.2% of all pregnancies. Additionally, there has been a sharp rise in the prevalence of HIV among young individuals. According to the Ghana AIDS Commission's 2020 National and Sub-National HIV and AIDS Report, out of the 13,982 new HIV infections that occurred, 5,211 affected people aged 15 to 24. Of those, 4,348 (or 83%) were women. Similarly, females accounted for approximately 92% of new infections among the 10-19 age bracket. Furthermore, issues of sexual and gender-based violence remain prevalent among young people.
