Association Tunisienne de la Santé de la Reproduction
The Tunisian Association for Reproductive Health (ATSR), created in April 1968, works in the field of Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) and promotes rights through a multi-sectoral partnership. ATSR provides and facilitates access to SRH information and services, particularly for women, young people and the most underserved and vulnerable populations including migrants and refugees, LGBT, PLHIV, and sex workers. ATSR also provides comprehensive sexuality education programmes for young people in and out of school to develop their capacity to empower themselves and assert their right to dignity, equality and a healthy, satisfying and responsible sexual life. ATSR has five service delivery centres and three mobile units. In 2020, ATSR provided approximately 200,000 SRH services to 40,000 beneficiaries.

Latvian Association for Family Planning & Sexual Health
The Latvian Association for Family Planning & Sexual Health (LAFPSH) focuses on information, education and training activities for health personnel and the general public, and sex education for teachers and young people. The organization has a highly active youth group which runs a safer sex campaign (in conjunction with national media). The group also publishes an advice section in a major youth magazine dealing with problems relating to (for example) puberty, relationships, contraceptives and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). It operates a telephone helpline which is run by young people, for young people. More broadly, LAFPSH runs seminars and workshops on sexual and reproductive health (SRH) concerns such as sexuality and people with disability, gender-based violence and menopause. LAFPSH has significant influence as an advocate at government level, and has been closely involved in developing the national reproductive health programme. This is reflected in the organization’s active programme of information, education and communication (IEC) in conjunction with the Latvian Teachers Association. It has led to the training of over a 1,000 teachers in sex education. A project jointly supported by the Swedish Family Planning Association and the European Commission has enabled LAFPSH to produce and disseminate high quality materials on STIs, condoms and sex education.
