PSRP initiated the SRH Watch project in 2022 with support from the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). The SRH Watch platform was implemented in Albay, Catanduanes, and Eastern Samar provinces by the end of that year. Due to its promising results, the project received additional funding for 2023 and expanded to include the province of Southern Leyte. The SRH Watch is an innovative platform that changes the way we track and enhance Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) outcomes. This cutting-edge system offers real-time capabilities, serving as an essential tool for preventing maternal deaths, a complete source of family planning data, and a vigilant monitor of contraceptive stock status. This revolutionary approach empowers decision-makers to proactively tackle emerging challenges, make informed decisions, and ensure the consistent availability of high-quality SRH services.

Real-Time Maternal Mortality Alerts:

The SRH Watch acts as a vital tool by providing continuous real-time monitoring and analysis of maternal mortality rates. Decision-makers receive timely alerts and insights into changes or trends in maternal mortality, facilitating rapid and targeted responses. This proactive approach saves lives by addressing the underlying factors contributing to maternal mortality.

Comprehensive Family Planning Data Hub:

As a database for family planning data, the SRH Watch consolidates crucial information on family planning indicators. Decision-makers gain access to a wealth of data, including contraceptive prevalence rates, unmet family planning needs, and utilization patterns. This comprehensive database enables evidence-based interventions, program optimization, and addressing service delivery gaps. Real-time monitoring ensures decision-makers have the most current and accurate data for swift responses.

Contraceptive Stock Status Surveillance:

The SRH Watch’s real-time monitoring of contraceptive stock status integrates seamlessly with the Barcode Track and Trace System (BTTS), ensuring accurate and timely data updates. This integration enhances early warnings and decision-making, guaranteeing uninterrupted contraceptive availability and efficient family planning program operation.

Informed Decision-Making and Targeted Interventions:

The SRH Watch’s real-time monitoring empowers decision-makers with up-to-date data, trends, and insights on maternal mortality, family planning, and contraceptive stock status. This information enables them to identify emerging challenges, allocate resources efficiently, and implement evidence-based interventions.

Accelerating Progress Towards SDGs:

Combining early warning systems for maternal mortality, comprehensive family planning data, and vigilant contraceptive stock monitoring, the SRH Watch accelerates progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Real-time monitoring allows for swift responses, timely interventions, and data-driven decision-making. This integrated approach optimizes intervention impact, minimizes service delivery disruptions, and fosters sustainable improvements in SRH outcomes.
