What we do

Advocacy

As a group of young women doctors, advocating for access to legal and safe SRHR and friendly services is significantly essential. We recognize women and girls' catastrophic complications when they are denied rights to reproductive services and opt for dangerous traditional options.

Campaign&Organizing
