The organization provides high-quality sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services to millions of people across the globe each year, many of whom are living in poverty.
Marie Stopes International China (MSIC), as a member of the global partnership of Marie Stopes International, was established in 2000 in China. MSIC is a non-profit organization and registered with the Industrial and Commercial Representative Office.
