Publisher: UNFPA
In 2007, UNFPA launched the GLOBAL PROGRAMME TO ENHANCE REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH COMMODITY SECURITY (GPRHCS), a fund that
supports countries’ efforts to build stronger health systems and ensure access to a reliable supply of contraceptives and condoms for family planning and HIV/STI prevention, and life-saving medicines for maternal health.
From 2013 to 2020, priority support will be provided to 46 countries grappling with high maternal death rates, low rates of contraceptive use and a growing unmet need for family planning.
