NAIROBI, 12-14 November 2019 - Over 200 parliamentarians from around the world participated in the Nairobi Summit on ICPD25 - the most important meeting on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) in 25 years.
The governments of Kenya and Denmark and UNFPA co-convened the Summit, which brought together advocates dedicated to achieving SRHR for everyone, everywhere. The high-level conference mobilised political and financial commitments, centred around achieving:
- zero unmet need for family planning information and services
- zero preventable maternal deaths
- zero sexual and gender-based violence and harmful practices against women and girls
EPF organised a Parliamentary Forum (MP Forum) each day of the Summit, gathering over 200 Parliamentarians from over 100 countries around the world and across the political spectrum. The MP Forum focused on three topics over the three days: health, rights and development.
