Marie Stopes International is a not-for-profit sexual and reproductive health (SRH) organisation that delivers state-of-the-art programmes in: family planning; safe abortion and care; maternal & child health; and HIV/AIDS reduction and the prevention of STIs. There are 5000 people in their teams and this year they worked in 38 countries, with programmes being developed in five further countries between now and 2010.

Their websites, email, search engine strategies and databases are critical in ensuring the right content and materials discovered by the right people at the right time. The quality of medical advice on the web is mixed and MSI’s healthcare content needs to be quickly accessible, while it’s information for governments and legislators needs to translate social and medical challenges into clear policy roadmaps.
