Happening now, @rrpplus is convening a three-day advocacy strategy workshop from 28–30 October 2026 at Savana Hotel, Bugesera District, in collaboration with @RBCRwandaand with support from @giz_rwandathrough the Rights-Based Program (RBP). Building on the progress made through the 2024 Community-Led Monitoring (CLM) cycle, supported by PEPFAR through @UNAIDS, and the 2026 CLM data collection conducted across four districts and seven health facilities. The 2026 CLM exercise covered COR UNUM and Biryogo in @Nyarugenge; Kicukiro and Gatenga in @KicukiroDistr; Remera and Kinyinya in @Gasabo_District; and Nyagasambu in @RwamaganaDistr. Using five digital tools, the exercise documented community experiences with HIV services, including feedback from service users, key populations, adolescents and young people, alongside facility observations and facility managers. The exercise reported 1,231 respondents, providing a foundation for further data validation, analysis and reporting. In his opening remarks, Mr. CYIZA Jean Claude, CLM Program Manager at RRP+, emphasized the importance of evidence-based advocacy and called on participants to transform community-generated evidence into actionable recommendations that address service delivery gaps and strengthen accountability. The goal is clear: move beyond data collection to coordinated action, ensuring community evidence informs decisions, strengthens accountability and drives improvements in HIV service delivery. #RRPPlus #CLM #EvidenceToAction #RightsBasedApproach #HIVResponse @RwandaHealth @RBCRwanda @Rwanda_Child @RwandaGender @ahfrwanda @soscvrwanda @sfhRwanda @Rwanda_Edu @giz_rwanda @mutambukaDeo @nsanzimanasabin @JNdayizigiye @CMuvunyi @TuyishimeAlbert @BrianChirombo @RichardAmenyah @AndrewGasoziNtw @HindHassan_ @uphls @InterfaithRda @HopeandHomes @RwandaYouthArts @RwandaEmergency @unicefrw @Rwanda_CCM @GlobalFund @WHORwanda @UNAIDSRwanda @ICAP_ColumbiaU @WVRwanda @UNFPARwanda

Mr. @Twbaptiste presented an overview of CLM and the implementation of the 2026 CLM cycle, highlighting how community participation and systematic monitoring can identify barriers to accessing quality, acceptable, accessible, acceptable, affordable, and responsive HIV services. Over the three days, @rrpplus’s technical team and community representatives will work to strengthen the link between CLM and advocacy by: 🔹 Agreeing on processes for validating findings and prioritizing issues for action. 🔹 Identifying responsible stakeholders and decision-makers at health facility, district, and national levels. 🔹 Developing evidence-based advocacy messages and communication tools tailored to different audiences. 🔹 Establishing mechanisms to document commitments, monitor corrective actions and track progress. 🔹 Developing a practical advocacy action plan with clear responsibilities, timelines and indicators. The workshop reinforces a rights-based approach that places the dignity, confidentiality, meaningful participation and lived experiences of people living with HIV at the center of advocacy. #RRPPlus #CLM #EvidenceToAction #RightsBasedApproach #HIVResponse @RwandaHealth @RBCRwanda @Rwanda_Child @RwandaGender @ahfrwanda @soscvrwanda @sfhRwanda @Rwanda_Edu @giz_rwanda @mutambukaDeo @nsanzimanasabin @JNdayizigiye @CMuvunyi @TuyishimeAlbert @BrianChirombo @RichardAmenyah @AndrewGasoziNtw @HindHassan_ @uphls @InterfaithRda @HopeandHomes @RwandaYouthArts @RwandaEmergency @unicefrw @Rwanda_CCM @GlobalFund @WHORwanda @UNAIDSRwanda @ICAP_ColumbiaU @WVRwanda @UNFPARwanda @gnpplus
