In an effort to encourage the availability of comprehensive women-centered post abortion care (PAC) services throughout Indonesia and improve access and quality of family planning services, especially post-abortion contraception, the IPAS Indonesia collaborates with cross-sectors through the working meeting of the PP POGI Family Planning Working Group with partners.
This working meeting is part of the 24th Indonesian Obstetrics and Gynecology Congress (KOGI) which is attended by cross-sectors, professional colleagues and experts. The IPAS Indonesia supports the implementation of the meeting which was held in a hybrid manner on July 23, 2022 in Pekanbaru as a pre-Congress KOGI activity on July 25-27, 2022.
The theme of this year’s POGI Family Planning and Reproductive Health Working Meeting is to improve access and quality of family planning and reproductive health services, as well as efforts to reduce stunting through postpartum family planning in Indonesia. These concrete efforts include the service level and policy makers.
The parties attending this event include:
- Dr. Ilyas Angsar SpOG, Chair of the KB and Kespro Working Group, delivered a performance review of the KB and Kespro POGI Working Group for 2018-2022.
- Dr. Eni Gustina, MPH, Deputy for Family Planning and Reproductive Health, presented the BKKBN policy on family planning and reproductive health services.
- Drg. Dr. Kartini Rustandi, M.Kes., Director of Productive Age and Elderly Health, talked about the Ministry of Health’s policy on family planning and reproductive health services.
- Dr. dr. Donel, SpOG(K), Chairperson of POGI Pekanbaru Branch, shared his experience of attending the TOT on Contraceptive Services with the new Curmod – Dr. dr. Donel, SpOG(K) – Chairperson of POGI Pekanbaru Branch.

- Prof. Dr. Budi Wiweko, SpOG(K), MPH, Secretary General of PP POGI, delivered a training on Contraceptive Services using metaverse technology (Augmented and Virtual Reality).
Through this activity, it is hoped that it can strengthen cooperative relationships with POGI, especially the Family Planning and Reproductive Health Working Group, the Ministry of Health, BKKBN, PPDS Obsgin education centers, and other partners. In addition, this activity is also a manifestation of the IPAS Indonesia which always supports the government in reducing maternal mortality and improving the health status of women and adolescent girls in general.
