By supporting civil society and community-based organisations, we strengthen the social movement for change in countries where the needs are greatest, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. We provide grants to directly fund local civil society organisations (CSOs) that advocate for and promote better policy and action on neglected sexual and reproductive health and rights issues. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our priorities within sexual and reproductive health and rights are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li
