Description 

This grant represents Canada’s long-term institutional support to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). The UNFPA uses these funds and other donors' funding to achieve its mandate. UNFPA’s mandate is to support countries in using population data to develop policies and programs that reduce poverty and ensure that every pregnancy is wanted, every birth is safe, every young person is free of HIV, and every girl and woman is treated with dignity and respect. UNFPA focuses on 3 main areas: reproductive health and rights, gender equality, and population and development strategies. Canada’s support to UNFPA contributes to increasing access to reproductive health, developing development policies that take population dynamics into account, and improving the status of girls and women worldwide.

Expected results 

The expected outcomes of this project as stated by the UNFPA in its 2023-2025 strategic plan include: (1) every woman, adolescent and youth everywhere, especially those furthest behind used integrated sexual and reproductive health services. They also exercised reproductive rights, free of coercion, discrimination and violence; (2) empowered every adolescent and youth, in particular adolescent girls, to access sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights, in all contexts; (3) advanced gender equality, the empowerment of all women and girls, and reproductive rights in development and humanitarian settings; and (4) counted and accounted for everyone and everywhere in the pursuit of sustainable development.
