The Federation of Reproductive Health Associations of Malaysia (FRHAM) is 1 of the 3 main implementing agencies involved in Malaysia’s national family planning programme. It delivers a broad range of services through a sophisticated and extensive network of 39 permanent clinics, 356 mobile facilities and 205 community-based distributors/community-based services (CBDs/CBSs). Services include sexual and reproductive health (SRH) consultation assistance and prescribing, contraceptive advice and fertility management, and the promotion of women’s independence through economic/work-based initiatives. FRHAM also undertakes work with specific, marginalized groups which face particular SRH challenges, as exemplified by a community-based project in the Malaysian aborigine village of Kampung Tisong, in the Perak district. Here poverty, malnutrition, illiteracy, isolation and under-provision were responsible for, and caused by, a whole range of SRH problems, which FRHAM counteracted through the provision of education, facilities and training.   Contacts Website; http://www.frham.org.my/index.php Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Friends-of-FRHAM-361982067245823 Twitter: https://twitter.com/FRHAM

The Mouvement Français pour le Planning Familial (MFPF) runs 40 clinics in France and delivers services to over 350,000 people annually. Half of its clients are under the age of 20.   MFPF provides counselling on a range of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) problems, including physically and emotionally traumatic incidences of rape, marital violence and female genital mutilation. It runs training courses and produces material for health personnel covering a whole range of SRH issues. MFPF is lobbying for improved administrative procedures with regard to the abortion law (to cut down on delays), it provides support to young girls denied parental authorization for abortion, and it has been highly active in challenging opposition to fertility regulation. MFPF is a leading member of the High Council for Information on Sex, a national umbrella entity for non-governmental organizations (NGOs) working in the broad field of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). It has also conducted solidarity campaigns with immigrant women, and with sexual and reproductive health organizations in other European countries (such as Bosnia and Poland) where women's sexual and reproductive rights are violated.   Contacts Website: www.planning-familial.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ConfederationPlanningFamilial Twitter: https://twitter.com/leplanning
