Community-driven, equity-focused approaches to SRHR work.
The vibrant city of Bogotá, Colombia made history today as the first Latin American host city for the seventh International Conference on Family Planning (ICFP) conference, scheduled for 1–6 November 2025.
This landmark decision, supported by the William H. Gates Sr. Institute for Population and Reproductive Health, the Government of Colombia, Profamilia, and Fundación Valle del Lili as co-hosts, marks a significant milestone for Latin America and the global family planning community.
After extensive deliberation and evaluation of potential host countries, Colombia emerged as the top choice, reflecting its exemplary commitment to advancing reproductive health and rights. Colombia’s progressive policies exemplify its commitment to fostering an environment where every individual can make informed choices about their sexual and reproductive health.
“Thousands of delegates coming from more than 120 countries can learn from the experience of Latin America and Colombia in particular about universal health coverage and how family planning and reproductive health services and demand are successfully addressed,” said Jose Rimon II, Former Director of the William H. Gates Sr. Institute and Chair of the ICFP International Steering Committee (ISC).
