Investigating the Early Impact of the Trump Administration ’s Global Gag Rule on Sexual and Reproductive Health Service Delivery in Uganda

CONCLUSIONSThe reduction in CHWs could reduce contraceptive use and increase unintended pregnancies in Uganda. The lack of other significant findings may not be surprising given the short post-GGR observation window. Rapid organizational responses and stopgap funding from foreign governments may have mitigated any immediate impacts on service delivery in the short term. The true impact may not be felt for many years, as stopgap funding potentially ebbs and service providers adapt to new funding environments.
