Background• Condom use remains a core sexual HIV prevention
intervention globally
• However, ensuring the quality, quantity, distribution continuity & equity of freely-available condoms presents substantial challenges
• Erratic & inequitable condom distribution, particularly in poor rural & hard-to-reach areas, results in poor uptake, inconsistent usage & an unwillingness to adopt condoms as a primary HIV prevention strategy

Policy Context1) South African National Department of Health is the main provider of freely-available condoms in the country

Policy Context (cont.)• South African NDoH is the main provider
of freely-available condoms
• Condom distribution across the country has been variable & erratic
• 3) National plan aims to supply 1 billion condoms annually
50 male condoms per male aged ≥15 years

Methodology
![Page 9: Brent Matthysen , Phiwa Sondhlane, Babalwa Fede and John Imrie](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568161ab550346895dd16831/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Methodology – Step 1Geospatial analysis of antenatal HIV rates
prevalence, 2011
![Page 10: Brent Matthysen , Phiwa Sondhlane, Babalwa Fede and John Imrie](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568161ab550346895dd16831/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Methodology – Step 2• Collaborative systems review of condom supply,
management & distribution system
– Poor:• condom supply• distribution coverage• monitoring (data recording)• data flow• reporting (NOT feeding the DHIS)• data analyses • information sharing
![Page 11: Brent Matthysen , Phiwa Sondhlane, Babalwa Fede and John Imrie](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568161ab550346895dd16831/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Methodology – Step 3Capacity-building workshops with SAG partners
– District & Local Municipalities & CBOs
1. Know Your Epidemic & Response
2. Drawing of maps by hand:• mapping of infrastructure &
services (107 CBOs & 242 persons)
• plotting of hot spots & primary & secondary condom distribution points
![Page 12: Brent Matthysen , Phiwa Sondhlane, Babalwa Fede and John Imrie](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568161ab550346895dd16831/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Methodology – Step 4 Plotting of sites using Global Positioning System
hand-held devices
![Page 13: Brent Matthysen , Phiwa Sondhlane, Babalwa Fede and John Imrie](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568161ab550346895dd16831/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Methodology – Step 5 Creation of electronic maps using:
− stored GPS coordinates− freeware Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
software applications
Collaborative amendment of condom distribution data collection tool used by the condom warehouse & other primary distribution points− auto-aggregation by week, month & quarter
using MS Excel formulas
![Page 15: Brent Matthysen , Phiwa Sondhlane, Babalwa Fede and John Imrie](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568161ab550346895dd16831/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Methodology – Step 6 Dissemination of e-maps to stakeholders for use
in condom distribution scale-up planning & distribution activities

• Participatory approaches ensure CBOs acquire in-depth understanding of mapping that is easily replicable without need of advanced additional technical support
• Combining participatory approaches, GIS technology & CBOs’ indigenous knowledge can fast-track equitable condom distribution & coverage, & reach key populations such as rural communities
