"Birth Spacing Saves
Women's Lives"
"There is an irrefutable linkage between women's health
and the health of their children
and their communities"
"The freedom to make reproductive choices is a cornerstone of women's empowerment. It is the first of women's freedoms and the one from which all others flow.
An essential part of women's empowerment is better reproductive health, including access to modern, safe, affordable and effective
family planning."
UNFPA
