In addition to providing sexual and reproductive health services, IPPF plays a leading role in international, regional and national advocacy initiatives in support of sexual and reproductive health and rights for women, men and young people. The following examples from Member Associations show how their advocacy efforts have made a significant difference to the lives of millions through changing national policy and legislation in favour of sexual and reproductive health and rights.
Through Project RMA, targeted advocacy initiatives by Member Associations have raised an additional $17.4 million for national level family planning supplies in five countries Bangladesh, Mexico, Nicaragua, Tanzania and Uganda. This project was IPPFs response to the global crisis in family planning supplies security, as many existing government and NGO clinics were unable to provide services due to lack of supplies.
