RB Durex establishes new partnership with PPFN on sexual health
In line with RB’s continuous commitment to being a socially responsible organization, RB has signed an agreement with the Planned Parenthood Federation of Nigeria (PPFN) to help improve the Sexual health and well-being of Nigerians.
The scope of the agreement covers Sexual and reproductive Health Education and increasing consumer access to condoms. According to a recent report by World Health Organization (WHO), ‘Every day, more than one million sexually transmitted infections are acquired worldwide, and each year an estimated 78 million people are infected’ constituting a major health concern even in Nigeria.
Thus, Sexual Health Education and Contraception are therefore twin preventive health strategies to curb this. Research and Real World data reveals that male latex condoms when used consistently and correctly is an effective approach to achieve a reduction in spread of STDs and contraception.
