  8. Bio Petra • My name is Neba Petra Lum. I’m a young inspirational woman in my early 20s After graduating from Longla Comprehensive College with Advanced Level Certificate in History, Literature and a concentration in philosophy, I enrolled into the faculty of law at the Douala University for a year, but dropped in favour of a vocational training. • I volunteered as member of the Youth Policy Group for Reproductive Health (YPG) for four years. The YPG is a network of healthcare providers, working to improve reproductive health and prevent HIV among young people ages 10 to 24. It is based at The INFO project of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg of Public Health, USA and run at Adele Reproductive Health Foundation. • Today I work as Health Coordinator in Adele Reproductive Health Foundation (formerly, Adele Reproductive Health Centre), a registered community-based non-profit dedicated to healthcare education and information as a human right. My work combines a passion for human rights with a devotion to improve the health care and living conditions of marginalized women and girls in underserved communities. I focus on increase access to and choice of family planning for low income families, and bring affordable reproductive health and family planning information and methods to women. I had spearheaded campaigns to address the unmet need for healthy timing, spacing, and limiting of childbearing to groups and raising awareness on improve access to long-acting and permanent methods (LA/PMs) of contraception. • Also, I’m a staunch promoter of women’s rights and believes in the potential women have to become the solution of tomorrow. My current project include leading campaigns to introducing reproductive health issues into local schools, colleges, universities and  health facilities (public & private) for maternal and child health and for HIV/AIDS prevention. Through this I’ve mentored young women and girls to be community-based health workers and classroom peer educators. . Also, building the capacity of civil society leaders to influence reproductive health policy is a significant part of my work. My work on abortion advocacy has had a particular focus on grassroots community mobilization and tackling stigma and discrimination by trying to influence women leaders and decision makers at this level.
