We provide 30% of the modern method contraceptives used by women in Tanzania, and approximately 70% of the long acting and permanent (LAPM) methods.
Children by choice, not chance
We always follow the Marie Stopes approach, using evidence to guide our decisions.
This leads our approach when delivering services, promoting sexual reproductive health awareness and working with trusted partners.
Marie Stopes Tanzania aspires to reach out to approximately 2 million new contraceptive users by 2020 as a way of complimenting the government’s efforts. Our core promise is to ensure that 70% of contraceptive users reached by Marie Stopes Tanzania are those living in poverty, to ensure we are helping those with the greatest need.
