Associação Guineense para o Bem Estar Familiar
Guinea-Bissau is one tenth the size of its neighbour Guinea-Conakry, but its people suffer equally distressing sexual and reproductive health (SRH) problems. The Associação Guineense para o Bem Estar Familiar was established in 1993 to address the major issue in family planning: equipping couples to make active, informed choices about the number of children they would have, and when they would have them. Since then, the Member Association’s work has expanded to embrace a full range of SRH concerns. It provides young people with information, education and communication (IEC) and behaviour change communication (BCC) around sexual and reproductive health; it works on the prevention, diagnosis and management of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) includind HIV; it provides post-abortion care and support; it provides care for victims of gender-based violence (GBV); and it advocates strongly at government level for legislation to prevent GBV. Associação Guineense para o Bem Estar Familiar achieved these results through a small but committed team that operate over hundred service points, including static clinics and community-based service points. Despite the relatively small size of the organization, it is growing rapidly with strong central support from IPPF, influential government partnerships, and backing from non-governmental organizations including UNFPA.

It is a non-governmental organisation that works for the full exercise of sexual and reproductive rights of all people, with special attention to women and groups that are in a situation of temporary or permanent vulnerability: young people, migrant people or people with disabilities, among others. In addition to working to ensure that laws and social norms promote respect for sexual diversity, bodily autonomy and the experience of sexuality without coercion or other types of violence, the FPFE provides services related to sexual health and sexuality. These services are aimed primarily at vulnerable groups and include information, counselling and accompaniment both from our centres, including youth centres, and in alliance with public and private entities throughout the country.
