Milinda

While at university, Milinda witnessed for himself the problems caused by the lack of abortion services and poor awareness of contraception: it was this that motivated him to work with the Family Planning Association of Sri Lanka (FPASL).

He joined the Family Planning Association of Sri Lanka in 2004 as a grassroots volunteer and peer educator for the Youth Caravan Project. It took him to 16 districts, where he worked to empower young people to understand their sexual and reproductive health and rights.
