Abstract
"Twelve years have passed since representatives of 184 governments agreed to a remarkable Programme of Action at the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) in Cairo in September 1994.1 Seeking new ways to balance population and development processes, the Cairo consensus represented a paradigm shift from a focus on controlling excessive population growth through vertically structured family planning programmes to a focus on promoting sexual and reproductive health for all through horizontally integrated primary health-care and family planning services. ICPD recommended parallel efforts to be directed towards achieving poverty eradication, sustainable economic development, education (especially for girls), gender equity and equality, food security, human resources development, and guarantees of fundamental human rights.2"(pg 8)
