About Empower to Plan

Empower to Plan is an initiative set-up and run by Population Matters to enable more women globally to have the access to safe, modern contraception that they want, the choice over the number of children they have, and so the knowledge, right and freedom to take control of their own fertility.

Currently, according to the UN over 270 million women globally have an unmet need for that safe, modern contraception and so lack choice over their family size.

We partner with carefully selected NGOs and groups active at the grassroots, in communities across the world (including the UK), which are working to provide choice and address that unmet need. Our Empower to Plan partners are focused on delivering practical action, aligned with our mission and values, and have a proven track record of making a positive difference (Empower to Plan projects also work with boys and young men to achieve related positive outcomes).

NB - Empower to Plan is about identifying, supporting and crowd-funding appropriate grassroots delivery projects and partners, PM is not involved directly in that delivery.

Our part, and the job of this role, is to identify potential partners and projects, carry out due diligence, promote selected projects for crowdfunding via our website, administer and coordinate the provision of that funding to the recipient projects. We cover all administrative costs, make up any shortfalls in funding to allow promoted projects to proceed, and showcase partners and project outcomes to create greater awareness of this issue and leverage greater national and international action.

Women around the world want the power to choose how many children to have – and when. Evidence shows that where women are empowered, there’s a natural fall in birth rate. Help us empower more women to plan – for their own sake, and for the wellbeing of future generations and the planet that sustains us all.

 “The way forward is the full realisation of reproductive rights, for every individual and couple, no matter where or how they live, or how much they earn. This includes dismantling all the barriers— whether economic, social or institutional — that inhibit free and informed choice.” 

- UNFPA Executive Director Dr Natalia Kanem

Examples can be found on our website under Empower to Plan.
