Faith to Action Network
The 2018 International Conference on Family Planning
Every other year since 2009, the International Conference on Family Planning (ICFP) has brought together the family planning community to share best practices, celebrate successes, and chart a course forward. The International Conference on Family Planning serves as a strategic inflection point for the family planning and reproductive health community worldwide. It provides an opportunity for faith leaders, political leaders, scientists, researchers, policymakers, advocates, and youth to disseminate knowledge, celebrate successes, and identify next steps toward reaching the goal of enabling an additional 120 million women to access voluntary, quality contraception by 2020. The fifth International Conference on Family Planning (ICFP) took place in Kigali, Rwanda, from November 12 to 15, 2018. 2018 ICFP’s theme “Investing for a Lifetime of Returns” spoke to the various returns on investment family planning provides, from education and empowerment to economic growth and environmental health. This year, faith organizations were strongly represented throughout the conference, with a pre-conference, interfaith prayers and celebrations, numerous side-events, panel presentations, poster presentations, discussion tables.
