My Nonprofit Reviews

I attended a WINGS talk in the Basque Country and I learned a lot about reproductive rights in Guatemala. I think this NGO does a great work providing education and contraceptive methods, because they do so by getting the local communities involved, speaking the same language (both literally and metaphorically) and being completely honest about what more permanent methods, such as surgery, involve.

They manage to empower women not only by giving them the chance to decide how many children they want to have and when, but also by letting them play an active role, either explaining what they have learnt to others or becoming providers in their own communities.
