Enhancing Sexual and Reproductive Health
Since 2018, the “Aao Batein Karein” initiative has been working actively to address the family planning needs of urban slum communities in Lucknow. Supported by the HCL Foundation, the project aims to improve the sexual and reproductive health of eligible couples by offering accessible, respectful, and inclusive services.
The program focuses on reducing unintended pregnancies and ensuring that family planning and abortion services are delivered with sensitivity and gender inclusiveness. In addition to serving couples, the initiative also provides life skills education to adolescents, empowering them with essential knowledge for their well-being.
Over the past two years, “Aao Batein Karein” has prioritized increasing male involvement in family planning efforts and engaging youth in meaningful dialogues around reproductive health, creating a more inclusive and informed community.
