The European NGOs for Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights, Population and Development
The European NGOs for Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights, Population and Development (EuroNGOs) seek to translate the commitments of the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) into international cooperative programmes in the field of sexual and reproductive health in low-income countries.
Every minute, one woman dies during pregnancy or birth because she did not receive adequate care and prompt treatment. Every day, 14,000 people are newly infected by HIV. Most of these tragedies happen in the low-income countries. Virtually all of them could have been prevented. However, sexual and reproductive health face enormous challenges. Millions of people, especially women, are prevented from exercising their sexual and reproductive rights.
