      This brief discusses the Health of People and Environment—Lake Victoria Basin (HoPE–LVB) project’s experience with advocacy on Bussi & Jaguzi Islands, Uganda, 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.

            Among other objectives, the HoPE-LVB project aimed to increase support for family planning (FP) and women‘s involvement in decision-making by linking FP benefits to community needs including income generation from nature-based livelihoods. Improved FP access was measured by the project using qualitative methods and the project‘s indicator database in terms of five barriers: service quality, community knowledge, physical access, finances, and social acceptability. Through coordinated interventions representing multiple sectors, the project helped communities move more towards a tipping point whereby FP use has now become more an acceptable and accepted social norm. Central to this has been improving service quality and physical access as well as facilitating women‘s involvement in income-generation, thereby increasing their agency and contribution to decision-making including pregnancy timing.

                This brief describes the strong advocacy component used by the HoPE-LVB project to ensure institutionalization and expansion of successfully tested approaches, particularly collaboration with the Lake Victoria Basin Commission as an institutional partner.

                  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.
