Health and Equality Action Around the World
We work with policymakers, donors, and NGOs to provide the necessary tools, knowledge, and support to drive sustainable progress in sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).
Convene
Engaging Governments and Global Institutions
Our parliamentary study tours, delegations, and conferences bring together policymakers and partners from across the political spectrum.
Study Tours
Alphea hosts several parliamentary study tours in developing countries every year to shine a light on their SRHR landscapes. Parliamentarians see the impact of official development assistance and can explore new cooperations.

Read the Report
The Next Wave report is a wake-up call. It shows us, with undeniable evidence, how anti-gender movements are evolving - better funded, more coordinated, and increasingly influential within our democratic institutions. Now it’s time for the European Union to respond with clear, strategic action.
