Bridging the Gaps 2 - PWUD project Nepal
Bridging the Gaps works with a Theory of Change approach. A Theory of Change is a description of a list of events that is expected to lead to a particular desired outcome. It is a visualization how change is believed to happen. In 2016, representatives of the PWUD community developed a specified Theory of Change that consists of short-,medium, and long term outcomes. The Theory of Change describes how we plan to realize the existence of effective NSP policies; an improved legal context exists for PWUD; and that there is increased access to quality, comprehensive and accessible harm reduction services in Kathmandu Valley. Through innovation and by building on previous work, we will strengthen civil society organisations’ ability to: 1. We facilitate community development Building of national PWUD network; Facilitating community development on advocacy. 2. We advocate for the continuously strengthening of services and upholding human rights Using evidence from the Human Rights Count (HRC) report on PWUD living with HIV (BtG 1) to build an advocacy campaign, and push for legislative and programmatic changes to ensure that the health and human rights needs of PLHIV drug users are advanced. 3. Deliver inclusive, rights-based and gender sensitive services Implementing an efficient and high-quality Needle and Syringe Programme in Kathmandu Valley; Conducting size estimation of IDU’s in Kathmandu Valley and conducting effective outreach; Training outreach workers on thematic skills and pilot outreach methods in the field. 4. Foster global and in-country processes and partnerships that reinforce results Improving partnerships in-country with other NGOs, government, the Health Council, and organisations that can assist in (data) management systems.
