Väestöliitto

Väestöliitto, often translated as the Family Federation of Finland, is a non-governmental organization established in 1941. Its primary mission is to promote the well-being of families and individuals, focusing on sexual health, reproductive rights, and family planning. The organization provides information, education, and counseling services to people of all ages, covering topics such as contraception, relationships, sexuality, and parenthood.

Väestöliitto advocates for policies that support families and gender equality, working to improve access to reproductive health services and to combat discrimination. It engages in research and public awareness campaigns to address societal challenges related to population dynamics, family structures, and the overall quality of life for individuals. The organization operates across Finland, offering a range of services through its own centers and in collaboration with other health and social service providers. Its work is grounded in the principles of human rights and evidence-based practices, aiming to empower individuals to make informed decisions about their reproductive health and family lives. Väestöliitto is funded through a combination of government grants, donations, and service fees.
