Product Introduction for Advocates

Basic Elements of Product Introduction for HIV Prevention

This slide deck provides an overview of product introduction, the process of moving products to the “real world”— an interrelated set of actions needed for global and national health systems to incorporate and deliver new, improved or underused technologies.

A Roadmap for Results: Understanding the ECHO Study Results

On June 13, FP2020 and AVAC held a webinar, A Roadmap for Results: Understanding the ECHO Study Results, with the ECHO team following the results announcement.

Hormonal Contraception and HIV Risk: Understanding the ECHO trial

The Evidence for Contraceptive Options and HIV Outcomes (ECHO) Study is an open-label, randomized, clinical trial comparing three highly effective, reversible methods of contraception — the progestogen-only injectable depot-medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA), a levonorgestrel implant, and the non-hormonal copper intrauterine device — to evaluate whether there is any difference in the risk of acquiring HIV infection among users of these methods.

Results, expected in mid-2019, will help guide the implementation of safe, effective policies and services that will enable women at high risk of HIV to make fully informed choices about contraception and HIV prevention.

The webinar featured:

Beth Schlachter, Executive Director, FP2020
Dr. Jared Baeten, Vice Chair, Department of Global Health, University of Washington, ECHO Consortium
Dr. Nelly Mugo, Research Associate Professor, Global Health, University of Washington, ECHO Management Committee
Tamar Abrams, Communications Director, FP2020
