Abstract:
UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, delivers a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every birth is safe, every young person's potential is fulfilled. UNFPA offers assistance to developing countries and countries with economies in transition, at their request. It is the world's largest international source of population assistance and channels about a quarter of all population assistance from donor nations to developing countries. Since it began operations in 1969, the Fund has provided some US$5 billion in assistance.
