Founded in 1987, RutgersWPF is aimed at improving reproductive health and ensuring reproductive rights in developing countries. RutgersWPF has implemented projects in Asia, Africa and Latin America. In 2005, RutgersWPFIndonesia established a field office in Jakarta, Indonesia in order to more effectively manage and expand its current portfolio.
