Abdoul Moumouni is a statistician and demographer who works for women’s reproductive health and rights in the Sahelian context. He advocates for a sustainable socioeconomic development through girls’ education, women’s empowerment and family planning. Because of sociocultural and political constraints in some Sahelian countries, such as Niger, it is still difficult to engage in a frank and open debate about family planning. By focusing on data and facts, Abdoul Moumouni contributes to discussions on the demographic issue and promotes policy changes in this area.
