World Contraception Day 2024: Launching the Road to Bogotá and a Global Call to Action for Family Planning

Sep 25, 2024

Celebrating World Contraception Day and Launching the Road to Bogotá: A Global Call to Action on Family Planning and Reproductive Health in a World Facing Crises

This World Contraception Day, the International Conference on Family Planning (ICFP) and the Family Planning News Network (FPNN) are proud to launch the Road to Bogotá campaign with a special episode of the Pulse of Family Planning, hosted by Dr. Tlaleng Mofokeng. As we move toward ICFP 2025, this webinar will focus on how family planning (FP) and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) remain essential to global stability amid intersecting crises.

With climate change, conflict, socio-economic challenges, and rights being rolled back, autonomy, dignity, and quality care are more urgent than ever. This episode of the Pulse features a powerful conversation with global SRHR leaders.

As we launch the Road to Bogotá, this virtual event marks the beginning of a collective journey leading to ICFP 2025, taking place 3–6 November 2025 in Bogotá, Colombia. Along the way, we’ll unite the global FP/SRHR community through local events and storytelling, culminating in Bogotá, where we will showcase our resilience and commitment to action.

Join us in celebrating World Contraception Day 2024 and be a part of this global movement toward a more resilient future! Watch this event in full below—available in English, French, and Spanish.
