Meet Maïmouna, a provider with MSI Mali whose passion for delivering birth control to local women and girls doesn’t stop at the clinic. She educates entire communities.
For years, many men in local communities misunderstood how long-term methods work. As Maïmouna puts it, “Men were afraid when we said, ‘five years,’ they thought it meant women wouldn’t be able to have children in five years’ time.”
Through education and conversation, Maïmouna turned that fear into understanding, unlocking community support for family planning.
Maïmouna changed the conversation around choice.
This is the power of the MSI model. Local providers like Maïmouna are at the heart of what we do, meeting women where they are and cutting through misinformation. Our providers change the way entire communities think about women’s choice.
At a time when access to birth control is under threat around the world, providers like Maïmouna need your support to keep going – reaching more women, educating more communities, and making sure no one is left without care.
