IPPF and its member associations, which provide sexual and reproductive health services and advocate sexual and reproductive rights in over 170 countries, are amongst the NGOs most seriously affected by the Global Gag Rule, reenacted under the republican Trump-Pence administration. UNFPA has also lost its US support under the new administration, directly affecting the lives of millions of women and girls.
With the additional support, Belgian support to UNFPA will amount to a total of € 36 million over the next four years.
