Dear Colleague,
A new guidance from the World Health Organization (WHO) has called for, among much else, injectable contraceptives for adolescents. Iulia-Elena Cazan and Rebecca Oas, Ph.D. report.
The new WHO pandemic treaty is not good, but it is better than what we feared a year ago. Sadly, the US was not there to negotiate. Rebecca Oas, Ph.D. reports.
And here is the weekly report from our friends and colleagues at the International Youth Coalition (IYc).
Support our work at www.c-fam.org/donate.
Spread the word. Be daring. Keep the faith.
Yours sincerely,
Austin Ruse
President
