Published purpose

This project aims to improve reproductive health and rights for women, adolescents, and youth in Pakistan’s target areas with low reproductive health indicators. The project also focuses on hard-to-reach areas by enabling them to exercise their reproductive rights free of coercion, discrimination, and violence. Project activities include: (1) advocating efforts to support the implementation of gender-responsive reproductive health and family planning policy and legislative frameworks; (2) conducting community outreach and social mobilization to reach women, adolescent girls, men and boys at the village level with reproductive health and family planning information and services; and (3) using behaviour change communication tools to address social and gender barriers that hinder women and girls from accessing reproductive health and family planning information and services at the individual, household, community and institutional levels.
