Lessons Learned and Global Partnerships: Stories of Sexual and Reproductive Health from Namibia
Maurer, Lis; Kelly, Maureen
American Journal of Sexuality Education, v1 n1 p39-50 Dec 2005
Through a Global Partnership Project, Planned Parenthood of the Southern Finger Lakes in Ithaca, New York and the Namibian Planned Parenthood Association (NAPPA) in Windhoek, Namibia have joined together to share best practices, technical assistance, support, and resources. The Global Partners share the common goal of increasing awareness, services, and resources to positively impact global sexual and reproductive health. This article details the global partnership, a state-of-the-state report on sexual and reproductive health issues in Namibia, the impact of U.S. policies on Namibia, and lessons learned about effective sexual health programming during the authors' exchange visit to Namibia.
