This income also helps them when deciding on family planning options. The group also gathers regularly to discuss sexual reproductive health, and family planning options. They are supported bu DSW (Deutsche Stiftung Weltbevoelkerung), an international development and advocacy organization with focus on achieving universal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights.
