Ipas is a nonprofit organization working with partners around the world to advance reproductive justice by expanding access to abortion and contraception. We aim to build sustainable abortion ecosystems that address all factors impacting a person’s ability to access abortion—from individual health knowledge to social and community support, to a trained health workforce, to political leadership and supportive laws. In Bangladesh Ipas works since 2011 and from its inception in the country we work closely with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare to ensure that women and girls can enhance their sexual and reproductive health via affordable, safe, respectful, and comprehensive abortion and contraceptive care. Ipas works throughout the country- in rural, urban and humanitarian settings.
Ipas Bangladesh is seeking applications from hardworking, sincere, and cheerful individuals for the following position.
Key Role
In South Asia, including Bangladesh, medication abortion (MA)/MR by medication (MRM) is widely used but often accessed with limited accurate information, stigmatization, and suboptimal user experience. The multi-country consortium, led by Ipas, seeks to improve the experience of people using MA/MRM by implementing four high-priority interventions, including CHW engagement, helpline enhancement, provider sensitization, and male partner involvement. Within this effort, Ipas Bangladesh will play a pivotal role in implementing the project in-country and ensuring all interventions are culturally contextualized, stigma-free, and centered around user experience. The Program and Admin Associate-I will play a vital support role by ensuring smooth program implementation and efficient administrative operations. This position bridges programmatic needs and administrative processes contributing to the overall effectiveness of the organization.
