 Measures to raise women's and girls' awareness of sexual and reproductive health and legal issues:  Dissemination of the Reproductive Health (RH) law at the national, regional and district levels through radio and TV programmes and talk shows;  Dissemination of reproductive health, family planning and STI policies, standards and protocols;  Production of post-literacy leaflets in local languages and basic French on women, girls and adolescents on family planning, the fight against HIV, female genital mutilation (FGM), safe motherhood and women’s rights. These leaflets are available in literacy centres and village libraries;  Education, Population, Reproductive Health Development (EPD/RH) programme implemented by the Ministry of Education.  Measures to improve the use and availability of contraceptive methods, provide information on family planning:  development of a plan to reposition family planning in Togo with:  the training of service providers in clinical family planning;  the monitoring/supervision of trained service providers;  the organization of radio and TV programmes on the advantages of family planning;  the training of Community Health Workers (CHWs) to promote family planning (offering of injectable methods by CHWs); 598. It is equally necessary to state the salvific effect of sensitization, information and communication activities carried out with CSOs on the reduction of the HIV prevalence rate. Launched in October 2014 by UNFPA, in collaboration with the CNLS, the condomize campaign (practical prevention tips followed by free distribution of condoms and femidoms), to arouse people's desire and the need to protect themselves in any risky sexual intercourse is a laudable example. In addition to that there was the continuation of the programme on Compulsory Teaching of Health Education in Schools to prevent AIDS and STIs (ESEPSI). 599. Furtheremore, there was a wide range of training programmes for members of women's and mixed groups on HIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV, gender-based violence, the adavantages of antenatal care and family planning. At the end of the training, the peer counselors were provided with picture boxes on the various themes to carry out sensitization in their institutions and communities. 167
