It has a broad reach which focuses on providing poor and marginalized populations with family planning, safe abortion care, maternal and child health care, prevention and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases (STIs) including HIV and AIDS and associated opportunistic infections. In the shape of permanent clinics, mobile facilities, community-based services (CBSs), FGAE has numerous service points. Staff, backed by over thousands volunteers, hundreds of peer educators and of community-based distributors (CBDs). There’s no disguising the fact that achieving proper SRH amongst the Ethiopian people is an exhausting uphill struggle.

Access is key to the Member Association’s activity, and it works extensively with young people to inform, educate and provide essential SRH services.
