Marie Stopes International
Marie Stopes International (MSI) is a non-government organisation providing reproductive health information and services to nearly three million people worldwide every year.
MSI's London Support Office provides valuable technical assistance to all of its Partners, in areas including monitoring and evaluation, training, marketing, communication and clinical services. It is also able to facilitate and co-ordinate donor relations and advocacy for reproductive health issues.
MSI has Partners in nearly 40 countries spanning Africa, Latin America, Europe, Asia and the Pacific. Worldwide, its aim is the same - to make reproductive health services easily accessible, ensuring that all individuals can exercise their human rights to plan their families and protect themselves against sexually transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS.
MSI can help parliamentarians and all-party parliamentary groups by providing briefings, statistics and responding to breaking news stories on reproductive health issues.
In developing countries, MSI is committed to alleviating poverty, reducing maternal and infant mortality and promoting safer sex campaigns to fight the global HIV/AIDS pandemic. The broad package of reproductive health services includes family planning, mother and child health, gynaecology, obstetrics, safe abortion where legal, sex education, advocacy and communications initiatives, HIV/AIDS prevention and information campaigns to raise awareness.
The MSI Global Partnership focuses on communities whose needs have been neglected, including refugees, adolescents and the urban poor, including slum dwellers.
In the UK, Marie Stopes is the largest provider of family planning services outside the National Health Service, seeing more than 70,000 clients a year. It provides abortion services for private and NHS clients, pioneering the least invasive and most progressive techniques. The organisation campaigns to raise awareness of sexual health issues and produces popular publications for the public and health professionals. |
