On 11 July 2017, the UK Department for International Development (UK DFID) co-hosted a global summit on family planning in London with the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in collaboration with Family Planning 2020 (FP2020) and in close partnership with United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and Global Affairs Canada, to re-energise global commitment to one of the “best buys” in development: rights-based family planning programmes.

The 2017 Family Planning Summit sought to sharpen focus on lessons learned and proven solutions, while broadening and deepening the network of partners to bring local actions and solutions to scale particularly for populations that have traditionally been left behind, such as adolescents and youth, and women and girls in humanitarian situations.

The 2017 Family Planning Summit profiled commitments from FP2020 countries and demonstrated their continued and increased leadership on family planning building on the FP2020 commitments made in 2012.

To achieve this we will work to reduce physical barrier to family planning utilization by increasing the number of health facilities providing family planning services across the country from about 9,000 presently to 20,000 in 2020.
