USAID health project, awarded to Pathfinder International, known as the AIDS, Population, and Health Integrated Assistant II (APHIA II) will be implemented in Nairobi and Coast Provinces from January 2011 to December 2015.

Like APHIA II, APHIAplus will strengthen the country's ability to improve the lives of mothers, children and their families in the areas of HIV/AIDS, malaria, family planning, reproductive health, and tuberculosis with quality health services.

The connection between population growth and family planning is as evident as ever, making family planning initiatives like the one in Ethiopia especially important.

But in our relentless focus on protecting abortion access in the USA, we are all prone to forget that reproductive justice is a global issue. And while many agencies do great work abroad in promoting family planning and women's health, I want to give a special shoutout this Monday to Pathfinder International.

Pathfinder International has submitted a statement in support of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women to the US Senate Judiciary Sub-Committee on Human Rights and Law.

Hugo Schwyzer- author, speaker, and professor- endorses Pathfinders International's quest for reproductive justice.
