Support Us
Family Planning NSW (FPNSW) is the leading organisation for reproductive and sexual health in New South Wales, Australia and the Pacific. Our mission is to enhance the reproductive and sexual health and rights of our communities by supporting all people to have control over and decide freely on all matters related to their reproductive and sexual health throughout their lives.
The Pacific has some of the lowest reproductive and sexual health outcomes globally, but is often forgotten in the global development landscape. As Australia’s closest neighbours, FPNSW, which trades under Family Planning Australia internationally, has the capacity to support and make a difference for Pacific Island communities.
Where do we work?
Through our international development programme, each year we reach over 14,000 people across ten countries in the Pacific (Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Timor Leste, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Kiribati, and Cook Islands). Our projects train clinicians and provide information and education to communities on sexual and reproductive health services including contraception and cervical cancer screening. We also work with governments and local organisations to ensure these services are disability, youth and gender friendly.
Why is it important?
Sexual and reproductive health programmes are proven to provide the skills and information required to make informed decisions on family size and spacing. Enabling women to delay starting families allows them to participate in education, employment, and political and civil activities. Supporting a strong reproductive and sexual healthcare system contributes to sustainable population growth, healthy populations and lessens pressure on resources.
