Antalya UNFPA Consultation

ANTALYA, 17-20 June 2019 - Access to contraceptives & quality family planning knowledge & services is a human right, but so many are being left behind. UNFPA and partners spent the week in Antalya to develop a strategic pathway to end the unmet need for family planning by 2030. 

EPF Secretary Neil Datta spoke on a panel to introduce the 2019 Contraception Atlas as well as the "contraception chocolate box" and anti-choice movements, "We need to understand that anti-sexual reproductive rights groups oppose the whole ICPD agenda, including family planning. Avoiding so-called 'controversial issues' is doing their work for them. We need to be bolder and more assertive in upholding our principles and advancing our ICPD objectives".
