For over 50 years, Pathfinder has worked in Uganda to bring sexual and reproductive health care across the country. As a 20-year civil war raged, and all other US-based sexual and reproductive health organizations withdrew their assistance, Pathfinder remained. Today, Pathfinder leads the USAID/Uganda Family Planning Activity (FPA). FPA addresses underlying social, cultural, and structural barriers to family planning access, so that Ugandans can freely exercise their sexual and reproductive health rights. The five-year program is addressing negative social norms and behaviors to promote positive reproductive health behaviors, ultimately improving the healthy timing and spacing of pregnancies in 11 districts across the country.
