The Association Malienne pour la Protection et la Promotion de la Famille (AMPPF) was established in 1972 to tackle the family planning challenges facing the Malian people. It rapidly expanded its activity and remit to embrace sexual and reproductive health (SRH) counselling; neonatal, gynaecological, post-natal and post-abortion care; and prevention and management of HIV and AIDS, particularly voluntary counselling and testing (VCT). These figures were achieved through the strategic and focused management of a strong team which has the capacity to reach out to diverse communities across the country. AMPPF has hundreds of volunteers, a strong youth action movement and hundreds of peer educators and community-based distributors.   AMPPF is actively engaged with the planning, health, youth and family departments of the Malian government. It has strong ties with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) including Population Service International (PSI), the Conseil de Concertation et d'Appui aux ONGs, the Federation Nationale des Associations de Santé Communautaire au Mali (FENASCOM), the Association de Recherche, de Communication et d'Accompagnement à Domicile des Personnes vivant avec le VIH/SIDA (ARCAD), and SIDA. Major donors include WHO, USAID and UNFPA.

FPAA is a long-standing alliance of the key sexual and reproductive health organisations from each of the Australian states and territories and is their national policy and advocacy voice. Through the IPPF network FPAA links internationally with organisations of like mind, to further sexual and reproductive health and rights for all. Our work cuts across national government strategies and policy frameworks in the portfolios of health, education, gendered violence, e-safety, child sexual abuse and international development. FPAA members provide a wide range of integrated sexual and reproductive health services that include health promotion, prevention, early intervention, diagnosis, treatment and support. We build capacity and strengthen systems by translating the best available evidence into information and education for individuals, community, and health professionals. We are inspired by working in partnership with our priority populations which include people who are: young women of diverse genders and sexualities Aboriginal and Torres Straits Islander of all abilities of all cultures While services, collaborations and cross-referral pathways may vary in each state or territory, our work is always intersectional. We feel privileged to be contributing to the bigger picture.
