Share-Net Burundi (SNBDI) is one of the four hubs of Share-Net International (SNI), the platform for knowledge sharing in sexual and reproductive health and rights. The other member countries of SNI are the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Bangladesh and Jordan. In 2017, an external evaluation of SNI identified that knowledge exchange between the four country hubs was limited and suggested that SNI should actively facilitate this exchange. SNI country hubs supported this idea and indicated a particular interest in focusing on translating knowledge into products for use in changing policy and practice. In light of these developments, the Share-Net International Rapid Improvement Model (SHIRIM) was established in 2017.
