Mission:
MFM challenges the paradigm in sex education in Germany that focuses on the dangers associated with fertility and sexual maturity. For its work with women, MFM stands for Mädchen, Frauen, Meine Tage (Girls, Women, My Days), and for its work with men MFM stands for Männer für Männer (Men for Men). The program’s leading principle is “I can only protect what I appreciate and respect.” In short, the motto embraces the idea of respect of oneself and one’s body, which she fosters in children before they even enter puberty.
