We’re MSI Reproductive Choices

    When a woman has reproductive choices – like contraception or abortion– she has greater agency over her body and power over her future.

    Women and girls seek our services for all sorts of reasons. Some dream of finishing school or pursuing a career, others want a break between pregnancies so they can give their children a better life. With MSI’s support, pregnancy becomes a choice. And futures become brighter.

    “We use contraception to reclaim our lives.” – Binetou, Senegal

    Everyone deserves the freedom to choose their own path.

    MSI is bringing that chance to these young women.

    And 93,000 other women and girls every day, across 36 countries.

    THE POWER OF REPRODUCTIVE CHOICE

    Choice saves lives

    A leading cause of maternal deaths is unsafe abortion – when women resort to dangerous methods to end a pregnancy. MSI supports women with safe, quality abortion care so they don’t have to risk their lives.

    Choice builds gender equality

    Every year, up to 4 million girls are forced out of school in sub-Saharan Africa because of pregnancy. To get the education, opportunities and futures they deserve, young women need to be able to be in control of when they get pregnant.

    Choice helps end poverty

    Unplanned pregnancies can limit education and work opportunities, contributing to a cycle of poverty that is almost impossible to break. We’re disrupting this, offering women in rural and remote communities the chance to build a better future.

    Choice supports in humanitarian crises

    During conflict or disaster, women and girls face higher risks of sexual violence. And when healthcare systems are disrupted, women face unintended pregnancies with no safe place to give birth. MSI provides life-saving reproductive care on the frontlines of crises around the world.

    We’ve reached 200 million people with life-changing choices. The impacts are rippling out, changing this generation and the next.

    But there are millions of women who still don’t have access to the contraception they want or the safe abortion care they need. So we’re determined to go further – to ensure every woman can choose her healthcare and her future.

    By providing contraceptive choice and abortion care unapologetically.

    By campaigning for reproductive rights globally.

    By trusting women to make their own choices.
