Togo

Togo faces urgent challenges in reproductive health and gender equity. With a population of 9.3 million, modern contraceptive use among women remains low at 24.9%, and the maternal mortality ratio is 416 deaths per 100,000 live births.

By partnering with local youth- and women-led organizations, EngenderHealth is driving lasting change—expanding access, protecting rights, and creating a safer, healthier future.

Our Work in Togo

EngenderHealth’s work in Togo has been marked by strengthening the capacity of youth organizations for effective advocacy on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).

Strengthening Local Youth- and Women-Led Organizations to Become Key Actors in Promoting SRHR and Improving the Management and Prevention of GBV in West Africa works with local youth- and women-led organizations to strengthen the SRHR knowledge and decision-making power of young people, girls, and women and support improved coordination of GBV prevention and better delivery of survivor-centered GBV services. EngenderHealth is supporting an established network of youth- and women- organizations across multiple countries in West Africa, including Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, and Togo, to advocate for expanded access to a full range of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services and addressing the root causes of GBV. The program aims to ensure that women, girls, and young people in West Africa can exercise their SRHR and create a world where they can live free from GBV.
