ICPD

Globally, ARROW is the only regional organisation that has consistently conducted five-yearly research and monitoring of the ICPD Prograame of Action (PoA). We have consistently monitored the implementation of SRHR in the Asia-Pacific region to assess progress/lack of progress in select countries with the support of national-level partners. As a result of this work, ARROW has accumulated expertise in developing critical SRHR monitoring indicators; a methodology of carrying out monitoring and advocacy around the ICPD PoA.

post-2015 development agenda

As governments negotiate on a transformative post-2015 development agenda, ARROW is one of many civil society actors advocating for the inclusion of universal access to SRHR in the sustainable development goals (SDGs). SRHR is inextricable from economic, socio-cultural and political rights and must be recognized as necessary ingredients to achieving gender equality and sustainable development.

conference of the parties (COP)

ARROW has been engaging with the COP since 2014, working on the interlinkages between SRHR and Climate Change. Our engagement at COP20 in 2014 was aligned with the Women and Gender Constituency (WGC), one of the nine stakeholder groups of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC).

The ICN2 is a global intergovernmental conference on addressing malnutrition in all its forms.
