UNFPA’s 10th country programme (2023-27), envisions an India where every woman and young person, including those from the most vulnerable groups, enjoys gender equality, fully realises sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights, and fully contributes to sustainable development. Furthermore, UNFPA’s strategic plan (2022-2025), and the UNSCDF for India (2023-27) reaffirm commitment to prioritising gender equality and human rights as important goals as well as the pathway for realising the SDGs.
UNFPA recognizes the key role that the media and communications can play in the process of socialisation and social change - especially in terms of raising awareness, influencing attitudes, suggesting appropriate behaviours, and reinforcing or breaking stereotypes.
To establish UNFPA as the leader in its field, it is crucial to enhance UNFPA’s visibility and capture the impact of the programmes and initiatives being implemented on the ground, to help target audiences, donors and potential partners understand its work and the value it brings.
