A health worker offering services to a woman in one of our MA clinics.

IPPFAR is the leading Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) service delivery organization in Africa, and the leading Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) advocacy voice in the region.

We work to ensure people are free to make choices about their sexuality and well-being, in a world without discrimination.

Women & girls

Two-thirds of the 1.4 billion living in extreme poverty are women.

Almost 50% of all sexual assaults are against girls 15 years old and younger. Globally, HIV is the leading cause of death among women of reproductive age.

Humanitarian

Children under the age of 18 years often make up the majority of victims of sexual violence in conflict-affected countries and the transmission of STIs persist at alarming rates, including HIV.
