Overview
The International Planned Parenthood Federation Western Hemisphere Region (IPPF/WHR) is a network of forty sexual and reproductive health organizations across North America, Latin America, and the Caribbean. It works to ensure that governments in the region recognize, protect, and fulfill the sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) of all women, men, and young people. The grant will support IPPF/WHR to coordinate the High Level Task Force (HLTF), which will prepare for the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) +20 and the post-Millennium Development Goals (MDG) process by generating consensus and focus among priority issues on SRHR and engaging key players to promote the inclusion of these issues in the post-2015 development agenda.
