We deeply convinced that the status of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) of the people collectively ,is one of the major development goals for the country and also recognize that everyone’s SRHR behavior is unique and individualized. By breaking the SES barriers, everyone deserves informed choices for their SRH preferences and these choices must be healthy and easier ones for them to be adhered once and forever. Most importantly, such SRHR promotion activities must be services without judging their backgrounds, ideology, ethnicity, race, religion or personal preferences.
