About us:

MSI Asia Pacific (MSIAP) is part of the MSI Reproductive Choices global partnership.

As our name suggests, we are unapologetically pro-choice. We believe that everyone should have the freedom to determine their own future, on their terms.

Our teams work across 36 countries and six continents, supporting over 93,000 women and girls to access reproductive healthcare — including abortion and contraception — every day.

With the help of our partners and donors around the world, we open doors, advocate for change, and strengthen public and private sector provision. We go further than anyone to make reproductive choice possible, and ensure quality reproductive healthcare is available for the long-term. By supporting women and girls to make the choices that are right for them, we can make a generation impact — increasing gender equality, breaking cycles of poverty and contributing to several sustainable development goals.

MSIAP is committed to creating an inclusive environment. We are proud to be an equal opportunities employer and give equal consideration to all qualified applicants without regard to race, ethnicity, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or age. We are committed to promoting equality and to safeguarding the welfare of all team members and clients, with a focus on vulnerable groups.

MSIAP welcomes applications from people with relevant lived experience, including people originating from the countries in which MSI works.
