Background
IPPF is a global healthcare provider and a leading advocate of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) for all.
IPPF’s Strategy 2028, Come Together commits the Federation to feminist, rights-based action across four strategic pillars. Gender equality and inclusion run across the strategy rather than sitting within a single pillar. This is reflected in the Move the Sexuality Agenda pillar, which commits to shifting harmful social and gender norms and growing societal support for gender equality, and in the Nurture our Federation, which calls on to “walk the talk” by embodying feminist and inclusive values in its own structures, culture and ways of working.
This commitment to gender equality and inclusion is tracked through Strategy 2028 Results Framework Indicator 6: Shifts in perception and attitudes in relation to gender equality and inclusion across the Federation and the communities we serve. Indicator 6 is deliberately broad in scope, spanning internal Federation culture and practice (Secretariat, and Affiliates) as well as external, community-facing shifts in norms, attitudes, and service delivery. To date, IPPF holds a range of evidence relevant to this indicator, generated through distinct MA surveys, programme evaluations, service-delivery data, and internal policy processes, but this evidence has not yet been brought together into a single account of what is known and where the gaps sit.
In 2024, IPPF commissioned the first Indicator 6 study. It used a qualitative, participatory approach with four Member Associations across Africa, Latin America, the Arab World and South Asia regions and Secretariat stakeholders, reaching 55 participants through group sessions, key informant interviews and validation workshops. Because the Strategy was at an early stage of implementation, the study focused on learning rather than impact and was designed to lay the groundwork for later rounds. This consultancy is the second round of Indicator 6 research. It will build on the 2024 findings and recommendations and, where possible, establish measures that later rounds can track through to 2028. It will also better engage Affiliates and external stakeholders throughout.
