Because every woman has the right to determine her own future.
Every day, our teams around the world meet thousands of women. At MSI, our mission is to ensure every single one of them has the knowledge, tools and power to build the life they want.
Around the world today, 32 million women are using contraception provided by us. That is 32 million women who can finish their education, learn a new trade, start their own business or take care of their family while enjoying a healthy sex life without fear of an unintended pregnancy.
In 2019, we continued to push boundaries and travelled further than ever – across mountains, over rivers, on roads less travelled – to provide high quality, safe services to women and girls, when and where they need them. This year alone, 14 million women were seen by our teams and chose a contraceptive method that fits their individual needs. That is over 38,000 women – every single day – that were enabled to continue to build the life they want.
The services we provided in 2019 resulted in:

We provide high quality, safe services to women, when and where they need them, because we believe that when a woman is able to decide her own future, and continue on her chosen path, she can contribute to creating a better, more sustainable future for everyone.
MSI helps women to have children by choice, not chance. We do this by providing contraception and safe abortion to women in urban and rural communities all over the world.
A global crisis looms as millions of women are unable to access life-saving contraception and safe abortion. As the situation becomes ever more urgent, we must take strong action now.
