The Team

At Ipas LAC we are living a new institutional stage marked by the strengthening of our Assembly, the leadership of the Executive Board and a way of working based on horizontality, collaboration and shared leadership.

Ipas LAC structure and members

We have an agile, collaborative and strategic structure that articulates different areas of work to advance reproductive justice in Latin America and the Caribbean. This model strengthens collective decision-making, recognizes the experience of each team and allows us to respond solidly to the challenges of the region.

Meet the people who are part of Ipas LAC and make this collective work possible.
