Promoting sexual and reproductive health and rights
The International Dialogue on Population and Sustainable Development offers a unique platform to discuss strategies, opportunities and challenges of promoting sexual and reproductive health and rights as well as implications of population dynamics.
The annual conference provides various interactive spaces to reflect on political and practical strategies and gives a unique occasion to widen and strengthen networks between stakeholders from governments, civil society, private sector, multilateral organisations and academia.

That’s How
it Works
The International Dialogue has become one of the main forums to discuss issues related to sexual and reproductive health and rights and population dynamics. The annual conference is designed as an interactive safe space to encourage the exchange of best practice, information and experience, and to facilitate and foster the networking of stakeholders in the field. Usually taking place in Berlin, the first virtual edition of the forum was organised in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We are together in our resolve to advance sexual and reproductive health and rights – no matter the circumstance, no matter the crisis, no matter the distance”
Kate Gilmore
United Nations Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights & Board of Trustees for International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), 18th International Dialogue (2020)
“If the targets set by the 2030 Development Agenda are to be achieved, access to sexual and reproductive health services must be guaranteed”
Dr. Maria Flachsbarth
Parliamentary State Secretary, Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development of Germany (BMZ), 18th International Dialogue (2020)
“Multi-stakeholder engagement is essential to accelerate progress, and I commend Germany’s leadership in creating this unique forum for discussion. The International Dialogue fosters the bold ideas, collaboration and action needed to achieve our shared goal of universal sexual and reproductive health and rights.”
Natalia Kanem
Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations and Executive Director of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) (2021)
