    Abstract This case study focuses on the Ecole des Maris (EdM) programme in Niger, where men were actively engaged in a reproductive health program to promote behavior change and improve women's reproductive health. The success of the intervention lies in the improvement of women's sexual and reproductive health indicators and, to a lesser extent, initial changes in the gendered nature of health care decision making. The program was selected as a promising practice due some of these successes, alongwith the nationwide and regional expansion of the programme, as well as the commitment of the government and local communities.
