Ongoing projects of BFPA
The programme portfolio of BFPA for 2021 includes various and interesting projects mainly targeting the strategic drivers that are a priority both for BFPA and IPPF:
- advocacy for the rights of vulnerable groups, international development (ODA) and social campaigns
- improving the access to quality health care services in the field of SRHR and prevention of HIV/AIDS and STI

BFPA in its role of expert and innovator is enlarging its target groups and is a role model and expert for many national and international institutions.
