Commitment Statements 1.1
Governments and National partners will take the floor to present their commitments to achieve the goals of the ICPD Programme of Action and Agenda 2030. The national commitments will, collectively, lead to fulfilling the promise of ICPD, including achieving universal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights. We hope that the commitments will be meaningful and "SMART" (specific, measurable, achievable/attainable, relevant and time-bound). Each partner will have a maximum of 3 minutes to announce the key elements of their commitments. As such, partners that submitted their commitments online will be announcing them at the summit.
