OVERVIEW | The Family Planning Association of Sri Lanka

OVERVIEW

Established in 1953, The Family Planning Association of Sri Lanka (FPA Sri Lanka) serves as a non-governmental organization (NGO) that explores innovative and challenging processes of family planning in Sri Lanka. We are proud to be one of the most expansive and well known NGO's in the country that focuses on family planning, Sexual and Reproductive Health and welfare.

At FPA Sri Lanka we believe that reproductive health is a fundamental human right of every woman and man throughout her/his life cycle. Therefore we focus on the following key areas pertaining to sexuality and reproductive health:

  • To provide adequate information and services
  • Training and interventions
  • Seeking to improve the acceptability, accessibility and the quality of SRH
  • To integrate human rights based and gender sensitive approaches

Through the above focus we work to safe guard and fulfil reproductive health related needs of the people. As an organization we uphold the commitment of the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) and its aspirations for universal access to sexual and reproductive health services as a significant factor in combating poverty.

We contribute to improve the accessibility of a wide range of sexual and reproductive health services by incorporating the following into our work:

  • Family planning and contraception
  • Safe Motherhood (including components related to unwanted pregnancies)
  • Sexually transmitted infections (including HIV/AIDS)
  • SRH information and counselling for adolescents and youth
  • Promotion of mental health and provision of counselling
  • Sub-fertility treatment and counselling
