Conference Speaker sought (3)
-----------------------------
Dear Jodi,
I was interested to see your message about the work of your organisa-
tion. We are currently embarking on a consultative process to develop
family planning policy in South Africa. This initiative is being co-
ordinated by the Reproductive Health Research Unit for the Department
of Health. This policy will reflect the high rates of STDs and HIV
that we have in the country and the need to promote barrier methods
for dual protection.
We are also incorporating the 'Medical Eligibility Criteria' that
have been developed by WHO. The Society for Family Health has been
involved in a South African social marketing initiative on condoms
and I have CC'd this message to Mitchell Warren who heads that or-
ganisation.
We would be interested to keep in touch with your work.
Regards,
Helen Rees
