Please join PMA2020 at the 2018 International Conference on Family Planning in Kigali, Rwanda. The Conference brings together the international family planning community to reflect on progress, discuss best practices, and consider how to achieve the goal of empowering an additional 120 million women to voluntarily access quality contraception by 2020. PMA2020 will be sharing data that are tracking progress made to reach this goal.
Stop by our booth (#19) during the conference to learn about new data, play The Family Planning Data Game (for a prize!), and to speak to family planning experts from around the world.
While at the conference, please participate in the Real-time ICFP Feedback Survey that PMA2020 is conducting. Make your voice heard! Find a PMA2020 woman data collector (they are wearing white PMA2020 shirts), participate in the interview to provide conference organizers feedback on the logistics and technical content of the conference, and enter for a chance to win an iPad.
Throughout the week, PMA2020 will share new research at presentations and panels, highlighting how PMA2020 data can be used to understand the current state of family planning, as well as inform program and policy development in the future.
See below for a schedule of PMA2020-affiliated events, including presentations, and panels.
