The Federation of Family Planning Associations, Malaysia (FFPAM) is a federation of 13 Member-Associations or State Family Planning Associations (FPAs). It was established in 1958 with the aim of educating Malaysians in family plannning and responsible parenthood, promoting and supporting effective family planning and sexual and reproductive services.
Our Goals, Strategies, Objectives and Action Areas
Our three goals and corresponding strategies focus on Advocacy, Programme management and Governance and management to address the ten strategic challenges/issues. These challenges relate to reproductive rights and sexual and reproductive health for women, men and young people with focus on family planning, safe motherhood, HIV/AIDS, empowerment of young people on SRH, gender equity and equality, male responsibility and participation, sustainable development and strengthening of our organizational structure.

To attain our goals and strategies we have identified fourteen operational objectives. The operational objectives that support Advocacy mainly relate to the promotion of sexual and reproductive rights for women, men and young people, the empowerment of women to be in control of their lives, men’s commitment and responsibilities and sustainable development and environment initiatives.
For Programme management, the objectives focus on awareness creation, expansion of SRH services and maintaining high quality and sustainable SRH programmes.
The objectives pertaining to Governance and management aim for more equitable representations of stakeholders at decision making levels, strengthening of volunteers, resource generation and optimal utilization of resources.
The goals, strategies and objectives will be achieved through the implementation of 63 varied and carefully selected action areas.
We shall also strive towards greater self-reliance. Towards this end, efforts leading to the formation of an FFPAM Foundation have started. Volunteers have and will continue to be the most crucial resource of our organization. Neither can we ignore the ‘power’ of information and communications technology which will be further integrated into our system.
