Partners in Population and Development |
"Partners
in Population and Development (PPD) is the only organisation
in the world fully dedicated to the promotion of South-South
partnerships. PPD is an inter-governmental organisation
(IGO), launched at the 1994 ICPD in Cairo. PPD has a
unique mandate, which is cemented in the ICPD Programme
of Action and the ICPD+5 document adopted in 1999 by
the United Nations General Assembly. It recognizes that
primarily governments and NGOs in the member countries
are best able to address their own domestic challenges
locally and address the shortcomings by sharing the
successful experiences of other countries. The alliance
is dedicated to forming partnerships between and among
individuals, organizations and the governments of developing
countries."
