"After they have joined EPF parliamentary study tours, we witness how our MPs take SRH/FP matters closer to their hearts and tend to attend the meetings of our APPG more regularly, ask parliamentary questions on our issues and show a greater willingness to take parliamentary initiatives, such as the drafting and rallying their peers with parliamentary resolutions on Belgium’s role in advancing SRH/FP."
Marlies Casier, Sensoa (Belgium)

"For the Swiss parliamentary group for sexual health and rights it is absolutely an added value to be part of a broader European network that shares information, experience and expertise and provides opportunities to stand together to defend sexual and reproductive rights."
Susanne Rohner, Santé Sexuelle (Switzerland)

"It is a great honour for OGF to work with the multi-party group #parlaandsex in the Austrian National Council. In Austria all/multi-party-parliamentary work is not business as usual. We are pleased to see that a shared agenda unites members of different parties. Support at European level strengthens the work of the APPGs, and MEPs are taking their SRHR action even more seriously."
Angela Tunkel, The Austrian Family (Austria)

"Collaboration between the UK APPG on Population, Development and Reproductive Health and EPF remains strong. SRHR campaigns and activities have been shared online and at meetings and conferences to support parliamentary advocacy."
Ann Mette Kjaerby, Parliamentary and Policy Advisor, UK APPG on PDRH (UK)
