  12. Negotiate safer sex -especially in long term relationship • “Married women/ those in long term relationships are encouraged to present the FC as a FP method… to avoid accusing her husband/boy friend of having other partners or being a risk to his wife”

  13. Appealing to both partners “If both partners are motivated to use a male or a female condom, there is a far greater likelihood that a condom will be use”

  14. Convincing men of the benefits of the female condom

  15. New opportunities: the power of social network and the private sector Private sector $$$$

  16. Way forward • Intensify, listen and target • Equip women & girls with tools for their protection • skill them to negotiate safer sex • Motivate men and boys to embrace responsible sexual behavior • Engage governments and donors – not to do give up on young people, on female condom… it is a life saving tool for many women and girls … and their partners
