PRIME II
The PRIME II project is a partnership combining leading global health care organizations dedicated to improving the quality and accessibility of family planning and reproductive health care services throughout the world. Funded by USAID and implemented by IntraHealth International, PRIME II focuses on strengthening the performance of primary care providers as they work to improve services in their communities. To accomplish its goals, PRIME II applies innovative training and learning and performance improvement approaches in collaboration with host-country colleagues to support national reproductive health goals and priorities.
In dozens of languages, among people of many cultures, and in urban centers and remote villages, PRIME II works to ensure access to quality family planning services, prevent unplanned pregnancies, promote safe motherhood, increase the availability of post-abortion care, and combat HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections.

Wisconsin Women Care II
The goal of Wisconsin Women Care II was to learn about the challenges facing women and girls in developing countries in the areas of health, economics, and education. Each of our selected leaders had experienced revolution and civil war, natural disasters, and unequal distribution of power. They used the theme "My story is important, and my voice needs to be heard" as they shared their struggles, triumphs, and day-to-day experiences through stories of joy, sadness, achievements, and failures.
