Fayata NU, in collaboration with UNFPA and the National Family Planning Board, focuses on reproductive health education for couples before getting married which is considered strategic to contribute to people's welfare. A recent public accountability meeting on gender and reproductive health programmes, provided an opportunity to discuss achievements over the last 10 years, as Fatyat NU's activities have covered husband-wife relations, violence against women, early marriage, unwanted pregnancy, and female circumcision. Fatyat Nahdlatul Ulama is an organization of young women under the Nahdlatul Ulama, which is the largest Muslim organization in Indonesia. Read in Bahasa Indonesia: Kompas
