Supply Initiative introduces text-only website
The Supply Initiative has introduced a "text-only" version of its web site, available at http://www.rhsupplies.org/textonly/index.html. This simple low-technology web site is easy to print out and only needs a fraction of the time to load. The Supply Initiative: Meeting the Need for Reproductive Health Supplies has a mission is to ensure that every man and woman, regardless of age, can exercise his/her right to choose, obtain, and use quality affordable reproductive health supplies. World-wide there is a life-threatening dearth of contraceptives, condoms, HIV testing kits and other essential supplies needed to provide quality family planning and sexual and reproductive health services. Inadequate funding and declining donor trends, lack of government co-ordination at the international and national levels, deficient information exchange on the demand and supply and weak delivery systems in developing countries are at the source of this crisis. As a result, only an eighth of the currently needed reproductive health supplies have sufficient funding.
