This brief discusses the Health of People and Environment—Lake Victoria Basin (HoPE–LVB) project’s experience with advocacy in Homa Bay County, Kenya, and offers lessons for other implementers on how to lay the groundwork to sustain integrated PHE projects at the sub-national level.

While the importance of pursuing integrated population, health and environment (PHE) approaches and ensuring their sustainable expansion to regional and national levels have been widely affirmed in the development field, little practical experience and evidence exist about how this can be accomplished. This paper lays out the systematic approach to scale up developed by ExpandNet and subsequently illustrates its application in the Health of People and Environment in the Lake Victoria Basin (HoPE-LVB) project, which is an integrated PHE project implemented in Uganda and Kenya from 2012–2017. Results demonstrate not only the perceived relevance of pursuing integrated development approaches by stakeholders but also the fundamental value of systematically designing and implementing the project with focused attention to scale up, as well as the challenges involved in operationalizing commitment to integration among bureaucratic agencies deeply grounded in vertical departmental approaches.

Les projets de population, santé et environnement (PHE) sont une stratégie de plus en plus populaire pour remédier au manque d'accès aux soins de santé et aux moyens de subsistance dans les contextes où la perte de biodiversité est menacée. Les projets PHE intègrent des services et des messages provenant de différents secteurs de développement, notamment la santé (en particulier la planification familiale), la conservation et les moyens de subsistance. Cependant, une question demeure : ces projets produisent-ils des résultats à valeur ajoutée ? c'est-à-dire des effets synergiques résultant de l'intégration entre les secteurs ? En utilisant des données qualitatives pour explorer les résultats à valeur ajoutée résultant d'un projet PHE au service des communautés le long du lac Victoria au Kenya et en Ouganda, cette étude explore plusieurs théories sur les raisons pour lesquelles ce projet intégré peut générer des résultats à valeur ajoutée, y compris des changements dans les rôles de genre établis, comme ainsi que la substitution de temps et l'investissement de nouveaux revenus dans des activités de subsistance durables, en particulier chez les femmes. L'intégration a entraîné plusieurs avantages à valeur ajoutée, en particulier pour les femmes, bien que la durabilité à long terme des résultats du projet demeure une préoccupation majeure.

This evaluation examines the evidence on the effectiveness and scalability of the Health of the People and Environment in the Lake Victoria Basin (HoPE-LVB) model of integrated population, health, and environment (PHE) community development in Kenya and Uganda. The project aimed to increase access to sexual and reproductive health services and improve maternal and child health care practices while reducing threats to biodiversity conservation in project communities. It also aimed to scale up the PHE model at the local, national, and regional levels through institutionalizing PHE in government development planning. This report suggests several ways in which enhanced coordination and resources shared among stakeholders at different scales could improve project outcomes in situ. A focus on advocacy and project development at regional and national levels is recommended for successful PHE scale-up.

The HoPE-LVB Project project applied the ExpandNet/World Health Organization (WHO) systematic scaling-up approach of Beginning with the End in Mind to ensure successful institutionalization and expansion of the project. This brief provides lessons to implementers and donors on how institutionalization emerged as a critical pathway towards scale-up and sustainability of integrated programming.

The Health of People and the Environment in the Lake Victoria Basin (HoPE-LVB) project is one of the largest and most scaled up integrated Population, Health, and Environment (PHE) programs implemented in the East African region. As such, the HoPE-LVB toolkit has been developed using the lessons learned and best practices from the project in the hope that this PHE approach to sustainable development will be adopted on a wider scale not only in East Africa but in other areas of the world. The toolkit is a unique collection of resources that has been developed to promote “a complete status of well-being” of individuals and families by converging activities related to the three sectors of population, health and environment.

This case study illustrates the relationship between population, family planning, community health, and the sustainability of natural resources in the Lake Victoria Basin, the largest lake basin on the African continent. It demonstrates how these dimensions are shaped by many factors, including human-caused alteration to the lake, access to sexual and reproductive health services, and environmental degradation.
