The 2018 conference served as an important platform for (1) keeping ICPD issues alive and within global mainstream parliamentary discourse, (2) taking stock of the progress of the ICPD Programme implementation and (3) strategically positioning population dynamics within the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

The conference succeeded in promoting dialogue among parliamentarians from all regions of the world on the implementation of the 1994 ICPD Programme of Action, with a view to achieving further commitment to collective action in the areas of resource mobilization and the creation of an enabling policy environment for population and development.

IPCI aims to produce a forward-looking declaration and action plan that fosters understanding of and consensus around the urgency to address current political discourse on sexual and reproductive health and rights.
