Lead bold change for reproductive rights around the world

Do you believe everyone should have the freedom to decide what happens to their own body and future? Are you ready to help shape a more just and equitable region for women in all their diversity?

MSI Reproductive Choices Asia Pacific (MSIAP) is seeking up to three passionate, values-driven professionals to join our Board of Directors. This is a rare opportunity to lead from the front—driving strategy, sustainability, and systems change for sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) across some of the world’s most under-served communities.

About us

MSIAP is based in Melbourne and part of the global MSI Reproductive Choices partnership. We are proudly pro-choice, feminist, and grounded in the belief that reproductive freedom is fundamental to a fair and thriving society. Our programs span Asia and the Pacific, reaching people who face the greatest barriers to care—because we believe no one should be left behind.

Why join us?

Help set the strategic direction of a fast-evolving NGO working at the intersection of health, rights, and gender equity, providing strategic oversight so we stay bold, focused, and accountable
Contribute your expertise to strengthen our resilience, partnerships, and impact
Be part of a values-aligned, supportive board with a shared vision for social justice
Use your voice and networks to champion choice and bodily autonomy in a time of global backlash

Governance and strategy – board or executive-level experience in guiding mission-driven organisations
Fundraising and partnerships – including philanthropy, major gifts, or income diversification
Finance and risk management – financial oversight, audit, investment, or enterprise risk management

We strongly encourage candidates with an understanding of SRHR, locally led development, and global health to apply. MSIAP values diversity in all its forms.
