UNFPA: Offering the Choice

UNFPA: Offering the Choice Offering the Choice  The impact of a family planning campaign for nomadic women in the Nigerien Sahara. Maimouna and Zeinaba are two nomadic women who live in the Tanout area (Niger). Access to reproductive health services is very difficult for them, since they are usually many days away from the nearest health center. Rahamatou, a UNFPA technical assistant, has had an idea: why not run a mobile family planning service so that women like Maimouna and Zeinaba can have the option of using long-term contraception? 12’ Documentary short film Client:  United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Country:  Niger Languages:  Tamazight, French (with English subtitles) Direction and Edition:  Iban Colón Interviews and Translations:  Salamatou Ibrahim Direction Assistant:  Abdou Ousmane Production:  Moussa Saley, Monique Clesca
