Financing is crucial to finalise the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD25) Programme of Action and sustain the progress achieved so far. The following strategies can enhance funding efforts:

Increased Commitment from Governments: Encourage national governments to allocate more resources to population and development initiatives in their budgets to ensure the ICPD commitments are met.

Public-Private Partnerships: Foster collaborations between governments and the private sector to invest in population health, education, and gender equality programs.

Localising Funding: Mobilise funds from within, multilateral agencies, and philanthropic institutions to support the ICPD25 agenda.

Innovative Financing Mechanisms: Explore innovative financing tools such as impact bonds, social bonds, and blended finance to attract investment in population and development projects.

Civil Society Engagement: Involve civil society organisations in advocacy efforts to raise awareness and solicit local and international donors to contribute to ICPD25 initiatives.

Monitoring and Evaluation: Establish robust mechanisms to monitor the use of funds and evaluate the outcomes of investments in population programs, ensuring accountability and attracting further funding.

Advocacy for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Align ICPD25 goals with the SDGs to drum up support from entities engaged in sustainable development efforts, promoting synergies that benefit both agendas.

By employing these strategies, stakeholders can secure the necessary financing to not only complete the ICPD25 Programme of Action but also maintain

Day 1
Youth Video Volunteers on SRH and Family Planning.

The program is aiming at building the capacity of youth on SRHRs and Family Planning and enhancing their communication skills.

Everyone Has the Right to SRHR
Every young person has the right to access information, education, and services related to sexual and reproductive health.

Importance of Family Planning
Family planning empowers young individuals to decide freely and responsibly when to have children and the number of children they want.

Consent and Respect
Respectful relationships are essential. Always seek consent and communicate openly about boundaries, relationships, and reproductive health.

Access to Accurate Information
Providing correct and LGBTQ+ inclusive information helps youth make informed choices about their sexual health.

Prevention and Protection
Use of contraceptives and protection methods helps prevent unintended pregnancies and the spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

De-stigmatizing SRHR
Open conversations about sexual health reduce stigma, encourage dialogue, and foster supportive communities.

Youth-Friendly Services
Access youth-friendly clinics and services that respect confidentiality and offer non-judgmental support.

Gender Equality and Rights
Promote gender equality and empower young women and men to make decisions about their bodies and futures.

Addressing Myths and Misconceptions

Presentation

Family planning offers numerous benefits and possibilities, including:

1. Improved Maternal and Child Health: By spacing pregnancies and limiting family size, women face fewer health risks and children have better health outcomes.
2. Economic Stability: Smaller families can lead to improved economic stability for families and communities, as resources can be more effectively allocated.
3. Educational Opportunities: Family planning enables parents, especially women, to pursue education and employment opportunities.
4. Population Control: Managing population growth helps reduce pressure on resources, the environment, and infrastructure.
5. Empowerment of Women: It allows women to make choices about their reproductive health, leading to increased gender equality.
6. Poverty Reduction: Smaller, healthier families can contribute to breaking the cycle of poverty.
7. Better Family Planning and Spacing: Enables families to plan and space their children according to their preferences and circumstances.
8. Enhanced Quality of Life: Overall improved well-being for families and communities.
