About Countdown 2015, tuesday 31st-2nd of september

‘Countdown 2015: Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights for All’ is an initiative dedicated to assessing the progress and mapping the future for the key goals of the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD), held in Cairo in 1994.

With ten years left until 2015, this initiative is about identifying future directions, recruiting new allies, and recognizing the critical role of young people in the next decade of efforts to both fulfil the commitments made at ICPD and bring real change to people's lives.

Countdown 2015 comprises a series of activities and events that will be held throughout 2004 and into 2005 - and is a key element of efforts by NGOs and civil society to mark the tenth anniversary of ICPD at the national, regional and international levels.
