Let's empower youth by making a society without economic, social & cultural barriers so they can start a family when they are ready as they desire. Too many young people don't have choices, whether in Seoul or in Seke, for multiple reasons. Let's focus on youth, not numbers.

[UNFPA East and Southern Africa @UNFPA_ESARO]

Seoul and Seke. Two regions. Two stories. One truth. Around the world, too many young people are being denied the power to choose their futures.

A really great read. The new UNFPA ESAR Deputy Regional Director Ms @YoungWHong rallies us this World Population Day, to stop framing young people as a demographic problem, but to see them as the designers of their own future that is fair, inclusive, and sustainable - for us all!

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The @UN Charter is not optional.

It is the bedrock of international relations.

We cannot & must not normalize violations of its most basic principles.

Now more than ever, we must respect & re-commit to international law — in words & deeds.

@UNFPANepal began our progranme on SRH of men in partnership with Ministry of Health & Population ! Enhacing knowledge & health services for SRHR of men is critical to achieving universal access to #SRHRforall and #SDGs by 2030 @UNFPAAsiaPac

[UNFPA in Nepal @UNFPANepal]

Just launched!
#Nepal’s first ever national report on sexual dysfunction conducted by SOLID Nepal supported by @UNFPA and Family Welfare Division shows that 7 in 10 adults over 30 face challenges—but very few talk about it.

#SWOP2025 launch in🇳🇵with a clear message: real crisis isn’t declining birth rates, but diminishing choices. When young ppl face barriers 2 housing/childcare & decent work, starting a family becomes uncertain.

Upholding the rights/choices of all is🔑to healthy & empowered popn.

This #FathersDay, we’re celebrating all the dads showing that caregiving has no gender 🧡

[Italy UN New York @ItalyUN_NY]

At 2025 Executive Board of @UNFPA, 🇮🇹 Italy reiterated its appreciation and gratitude to UNFPA Executive Director @Atayeshe for her remarkable tenure. Italy has been a trusted partner of #UNFPA, for example supporting its work to improve the protection of women and girls from all forms of violence and abuse, to fight against all harmful practices and promote maternal and reproductive health.
We will continue to work to bring 🇮🇹/UNFPA joint efforts forward.

[UNFPA @UNFPA]

Let’s be clear:

Any type of harmful practice against a woman or a girl is gender-based violence.

And it should never happen.

[UNFPA in Eastern Europe & Central Asia @unfpaeecaro]

Fueled by the war, gender-based violence is on the rise in #Ukraine.

This week, @UNFPA, with support from 🇫🇷, delivered 6 cars to the police, so special units can arrive sooner at the scene and support domestic violence survivors.

The donation is part of a broader program to strengthen the police’s capacities to address gender-based violence.

[UNFPA in Nepal @UNFPANepal]

UNFPA together w/ the SupremeCourt of #Nepal& justice sector partners held a high level policy dialogue to advance access to justice for marginalized groups—including GBV survivors.
From legal aid reform to survivor-centered systems, the goal is clear- justice that works for all.
