Description

IPPF/WHR is a recognized leader in the international movement to ensure access to sexual and reproductive health care, including family planning, as a human right for all people. Working for 55 years toward its mission, IPPF/WHR pioneered the introduction of family planning services in Latin America and the Caribbean and developed innovative and effective strategies for meeting the sexual and reproductive health needs of young people and adults, urban and rural populations, and the poor.

In partnership with 40 Member Associations across Latin America, North America, and the Caribbean, IPPF/WHR provided nearly 29 million services in 2011. Today, we continue to respond to the tremendous need for contraceptive services, while also addressing a range of issues that have an impact on sexual and reproductive health, such as HIV/AIDS, gender-based violence, and unsafe abortion.
