Cultural leaders in the Lango sub region have made a resolve to champion family planning as way of improving the quality of life of the communities. Under their umbrella body the Lango Cultural Foundation (LCF),the leaders made consensus that family planning is the key to ending maternal mortality, keeping girls in school, addressing teenage pregnancy and ending gender based violence in the region. The recommendations point towards ensuring that sexual and reproductive health and rights issues are addressed in the region in an effort to achieve the demographic dividend.
