Established in 2014, Triggerise is a non-profit organisation that leverages technology and behavioural insights to design, implement, and scale access to sexual reproductive health (SRH) services among adolescents and young people (AYP) aged 15-24 years. Using the Tiko platform, Triggerise connects low-income adolescents and young people with non-judgmental, quality-assured SRH services that meet their specific needs. We envision a world where all AYP have the power to choose where, when, and how they meet their SRH needs. Further, Tiko connects partners and actors across demand and supply to give young people access to quality SRH products and services, thereby enabling young people to: postpone or prevent unplanned pregnancies, know their HIV status, use Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) to reduce their risk of HIV acquisition, adhere to Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), screen for and obtain support to address mental health challenges and acquire the necessary skills to secure income or entrepreneurship opportunities.
In Uganda, Triggerise has successfully established an ecosystem of partners, including private clinics, community pharmacies and public facilities, as well as Community-Based Organizations (CBOs). Our work in Kampala is dedicated to empowering adolescents and young people (aged 15-24 years) to access essential services, such as contraceptives, HIV testing, ART, PrEP and mental health. We achieve this through a multi-faceted approach:
Through these interventions, we aim to improve the agency of young people aged 15-24 years to take up and sustain the use of contraceptives, mental health services and HIV prevention and treatment services
Scope of research
Triggerise’s goal is to assess the impact of the program in Kampala, particularly in areas where we have established Tiko ecosystems. The evaluation will encompass three distinct levels: the market level, individual level, and social level. The evaluation process will involve data collection and analysis at both the baseline and endline stages. The baseline is planned for January 2024 while the endline will be done in January 2025.
The evaluation’s design and implementation must integrate the principles of gender equality, disability, inclusion and non-discrimination. Participation of the most vulnerable groups and other key stakeholders throughout the process is imperative.
The evaluation needs to address and answer the following objectives and research questions:
Market level evaluation
Determine the extent to which Tiko increases the availability of integrated, AYP centric SRH, HIV and mental health services in the public and private sector
Individual level evaluation
Understand the extent to which AYPs reached by the programme access integrated, user centric SRH, HIV and mental health services and the extent to which they are empowered on their mental, sexual and reproductive health and wellbeing
Social network evaluation
Assess the extent to which Tiko influences the social environment and ultimately access to mental health, HIV testing, treatment, prevention and family planning services
The baseline evaluation is scheduled for January 2024 while the endline is planned for January 2025. The evaluation will employ a mixed methods approach to evaluate the impact of the programme. The impact will be established by collating various sources of data and triangulating the insights to determine the impact across the three levels. These data sources include:
Applicants are expected to outline the proposed methods and the questions these will answer. Applications should also include proposed analytical approaches to use.
The primary purpose of the work is to design and conduct a baseline survey to be implemented in January 2024 in Kampala Uganda. The findings of this evaluation will provide Triggerise with a set of baseline measurements against which to monitor and track the progress, effectiveness and impact of the Tiko Platform over the course of implementation.
