It's time: we're leaving X

After careful consideration, we have decided to leave the platform X, effective 20 January 2025.

As an organisation dedicated to promoting and protecting the health, rights, and dignity of all individuals, we must prioritise the safety and well-being of our community in every space we occupy. 

After careful consideration, we have decided to leave the platform X, effective 20 January 2025. Unfortunately, X no longer provides the safe and supportive environment that our community deserves. The increasing prevalence of harmful discourse and the platform's failure to adequately address it have made this decision necessary. 

We are also deeply concerned about Meta’s new policy updates announced in the beginning of January, which raise critical questions about privacy, misinformation, and the safety of vulnerable groups online, including women, migrants, transgender people and the LGBTQIA+ community. As advocates for sexual and reproductive health and rights, we must ensure the digital spaces we engage with uphold the values of equity, inclusion, and accountability. 

Our commitment to creating meaningful conversations and driving positive change remains steadfast. You can continue to connect with us on LinkedIn, Instagram, or our website, where we will remain active and responsive. To never miss an update, follow us on Instagram and tap the bell icon at the top-right corner on our profile to turn on notifications!  link

We thank you for your continued support and invite you to join us in advocating for safer and more equitable digital spaces for all. Together, we can build a world where everyone can thrive—online and offline.
