Between 2002
and 2006, Safe International with support from PPFA implemented
a project in Khartoum entitled “Advocacy, Awareness and Service
Delivery to Factory Workers.” Through the project’s youth
program, peer youth educators were trained to provide sexuality
education and prevention of HIV/AIDS at the community. The
project facilitators provide referrals as well as information on
a wide range of sexual and reproductive health topics, such as
STI prevention and treatment, HIV/AIDS, consequences of FGC,
benefits of child spacing and the importance of emergency
obstetric care for preventing pregnancy related complications.
For factories that have on-site health clinics, Safe
International has introduced family planning, STI treatment and
other SRH services. By providing essential information and
creating linkages to a broader referral system, Safe
International will make SRH more accessible and sustainable for
the residents of Khartoum.
Since
2003, Safe International has taken the lead role in training and
providing PAC services. Safe International is a strong advocate
for PAC services and has worked in close collaboration with MOH
to improve access. Safe International currently hosts the PAC
network in Sudan and it coordinates the activities of the
