  • Title: Cairo conference: follow-up. Debate at the 49th session of the General Assembly.
    Journal: Afr Popul Newsl; 1995; (67):2-5. PubMed ID: 12319533.
    Abstract:
    The 49th session of the General Assembly passed a resolution endorsing the Program of Action from the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) and decided that the General Assembly, the Economic and Social Council, and a revitalized Population Commission will play the primary role in the follow-up of the implementation of the Program of Action at the intergovernmental level. Regional commissions, other regional and subregional organizations, and the development banks are invited to examine the results of the conference within their respective mandates for the follow-up and implementation of the Program of Action at the regional level. The resolution also asks the Economic and Social Council at its substantive session of 1995 to consider the establishment of a separate board of the UN Population Fund. This article notes some of the suggestions and interests of countries and groups of countries following the conference. In addition, the UNFPA convened a high-level meeting to follow-up the ICPD, and the Commission on Population and Development held its first session at UN headquarters from February 21 to March 2, 1995. Future UNFPA orientations and priorities are noted.
