Family Planning Summit: Summary of UK Commitments

Summary of UK Commitments

Details

In 2012 the UK committed to spend an average of £180m a year on family planning (FP) to 2020. As a result we have so far supported 8.5 million more women to use voluntary modern contraception. The UK will again rise to the challenge and spend an average of £225m every year for the next five years. This predictability will allow the long term planning that our partners need to reach those still left behind.
