Summary: The aim of the research underpinning this volume was threefold: to determine how countries understand and are acting on the Programme of Action endorsed by the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) held in Cairo in 1994; how efforts to implement that program can be assessed; and what is needed to move forward. The resulting case studies help also to answer broader questions regarding assistance for health and sustainable development from the perspective of both developing and donor countries. The authors focus especially on the ICPD reproductive health agenda, considering its viability and sustainability, current and alternative sources for financing at the national level, and the current and future importance of international donor aid. Each case study, while concentrating on the public sector, also addresses the critical roles of NGOs and corporate actors. The concluding chapter discusses lessons learned thus far about the reproductive health approach to population and development.
