Program
Coalition Advancing Multipurpose Innovations
The Coalition Advancing Multipurpose Innovations (CAMI) is a global initiative that works to improve sexual and reproductive health prevention strategies, and to develop new multipurpose prevention technologies (MPTs) that would simultaneously prevent unintended pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and other common reproductive infections. CAMI provides a platform for bio-tech developers, researchers, advocates and educators to coordinate efforts, spurring innovations that will empower women and adolescents and improve reproductive health.
Projects
Health Literacy around MPTs and Simultaneous Prevention of Unintended Pregnancies and STIs
CAMI has developed outreach materials to raise awareness about the simultaneous risk of unintended pregnancy and STIs, and the need for MPTs. Examples include:
- Global Reproductive Health Diaries: Development and distribution of educational and advocacy materials.
- Sister to Sister Photo novellas: We are currently seeking support to expand these novellas in different regions using mHealth.
Initiative for Multipurpose Prevention Technologies (IMPT)
CAMI serves as the Secretariat for the IMPT. Since 2009, CAMI and our IMPT partners have built upon over two decades of work on dual-protection and address the intrinsic link between unintended pregnancy and risk for HIV and other sexually transmitted infections.
