South Africa

Ipas South Africa partners with health departments in two provinces, Gauteng and Limpopo, to increase women’s access to safe, high-quality abortion. Programs include training safe abortion providers and clinic staff and supporting facilities to provide safe abortion services. Ipas South Africa also works with partners to advocate for public commitment to legal, accessible abortion. Beginning in 1995, Ipas partnered with South Africa’s National Department of Health and all nine Provincial Departments of Health to increase access to safe abortion care. Ipas closed its South Africa office in 2014 and reopened in 2017.

We welcome suppliers, including independent consultants, academic and professional institutions, community-based, faith-based, sub-national/national, non-governmental, and global organizations, to collaborate with us to advance the Ipas mission. Our suppliers become valued partners in our supply chain as they enable us to achieve our mission cost-effectively, timely, sustainably and in line with our policies. Our procurement teams are focused on fostering enduring mutually beneficial relationships for our suppliers and Ipas. We expect all our suppliers to be committed to the Ipas mission and to share our sense of purpose and commitment to enhance a sustainable abortion ecosystem that ensures that all people have bodily autonomy and can access the essential health care they need.
