About the ICFP Program Implementation subcommittee
Highlighting the Critical Linkages Between Experts, Researchers, and Advocates

- Engage partners, governments, practitioners, scientists, youth-led organizations and activists from across the regions and sectors
- Create an equitable collaborative space where different experiences, languages and geographies are represented
Create space and opportunities to exchange experiences on ‘what works’ and ‘what doesn’t work’ and how they can apply to different contexts - Encourage long-standing and new partners to push the boundaries and work with countries to achieve their vision of sustainable development – and UHC in particular – by investing in family planning, and supporting resilient health systems and services

Program Implementation at the Not Without FP Forum
The Program Implementation Community Session focused on how high impact practices in family planning are being implemented in countries. Virtual roundtables (held in English and French) provide opportunity for in-depth discussions on what’s working and why or why not. Participants had the opportunity to share examples of implementation on the ground, success and challenges faced including COVID-19, and recommendations and tips for scaling up and other implementers.
