Participants committed to accelerating progress on rights-based family planning programmes.

In 2012, at a summit in London, dozens of organisations and countries agreed to support voluntary family planning, with the aim of reaching 120 million more women around the world.

If this goal were achieved, the world would see approximately 110 million fewer unintended pregnancies, nearly 3 million fewer babies dying in their first year of life, and 200,000 fewer women and girls dying in pregnancy and childbirth.
