CARMMA - Campaign for Accelerated Reduction of Maternal Mortality in Africa
Five years after the launch of the Maputo Plan of Action on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SSRHR) in the Africa Region, the African Union in collaboration with UNFPA launched CARMMA, the Campaign for Accelerated Reduction of Maternal Mortality in Africa, in 2009. This was in response to slow progress in reducing maternal, neonatal and child mortality rates in many African countries.

POPULATION AND DEVELOPMENT NETWORKS
Network of African Women Parliamentarians and Ministers
REFAMP was created with a view to promoting greater access by African women to decision-making posts. Through this network, women ministers and parliamentarians decided to unite and form a pressure group to defend the interests of women and ensure the promotion and protection of their rights, improve their living conditions, and work towards sustainable peace and development.
Forum of African and Arab Parliamentarians on Population and Development (FAAPPD)
Established in South Africa in May 1997, FAAPPD is an intergovernmental organisation of non-profit African and Arabic members of parliament. It was set up following the International Conference on Population and Development in Cairo, Egypt in September 1994. FAAPPD signed an agreement of seat with the Government of Senegal.
As in all other regions of the world, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has long considered faith-based organisations (FBOs) in Africa to be highly relevant partners in the work it does on the continent. Over the years they have become engaged in improving efforts to reduce maternal mortality, achieving an end to violence against women, building more gender-conscious communities and in initiatives that support the education of the girl child.
African Network of Population & Development Communicators
At a 2006 regional media conference in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo on how to better cover population issues on the continent, a continent-wide media network on population and development was launched, with an interface (secretariat) to help stimulate greater interest and facilitate the revival of commitment to better reporting and programming on key development issues.
African Youth and Adolescents' Network (AFriYAN)
|
UNFPA supports the work of the African Youth and Adolescent on Population and Development (AfriYAN). Since its inception in December 2005, AfriYAN has been an instrumental and active participant in influencing governments to strengthen their response to addressing issues of young people and ensuring universal access to SRH services and programmes.
