TAILIEUCHUNG - ENLISTING THE ARMED FORCES TO PROTECT REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND RIGHTS: LESSONS LEARNED FROM NINE COUNTRIES

Increasing men’s participation also is a high priority for the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF/Africa), which tries to reach men in their communities, in workplaces and schools, in hotels and bars, and through social marketing, as well as with clinical services. Lessons learned from IPPF experience suggests that men are not opposed to family planning or to contraception but need to receive more information, along with community support and support from employers and opinion leaders. Among IPPF affiliates in French-speaking African countries the number of reproductive health programs directed to men remains extremely limited, however. Two case studies about providing services were presented, by Santé Familiale. | ENLISTING THE ARMED FORCES TO PROTECT REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND RIGHTS LESSONS LEARNED FROM NINE COUNTRIES TECHNICAL REPORT Technical Support Division Culture Gender and Human Rights Branch Copyright UNFPA New York 18 August 2003 ISBN 0-89714-676-X 2 FOREWORD UNFPA has been at the forefront of involving men in reproductive and sexual health for decades and especially since the International Conference on Population and Development ICPD 1994 . Over the years we have learned a great deal about how to positively engage men to take charge of their own reproductive and sexual well-being and support that of their partners. One of the fundamental lessons is to reach out to men where they are rather than expect them to seek out reproductive and sexual health information and services. Employment-based programmes have been one of the most successful ways of doing this. Drawing on pre-Cairo successes with employment-based population and family life education programmes UNFPA has worked in several countries with a major employer -the military - to introduce expand and enhance reproductive and sexual health information and services. The enormous human social and economic toll of HIV AIDS and the increased awareness of women s vulnerability to gender-based violence have given greater urgency to this approach. Many countries have planned or are now implementing projects targeting men in uniform as a way to promote HIV prevention engage men as partners in gender equity and the reduction of gender-based violence and improve their own and their partners reproductive health status and protect their rights. To map out what can be done in future interventions related to reproductive health and gender equity within this key institution this publication draws lessons from nine country case studies and a global review of emerging programming and policy issues for enlisting the armed forces in reproductive health including preventing HIV AIDS and promoting gender equity.
