Björn Andersson, Former Regional Director for UNFPA Asia and the Pacific, offers firsthand reflections on this transformative journey that began in 1994.

As we commemorate the 30-year milestone of ICPD, we delve into how the programme has progressed, ensuring that the rights of women and girls take center stage in global development. This episode focuses on promoting women's health and empowerment, through which we can build peaceful, resilient, and sustainable societies, all while discussing the evolving challenges of migration, urbanization, aging, climate change, and digitalization, which shape governments' ongoing efforts to accelerate the 1994 Programme of Action.Find out more in the episode now!
