In a single year, access to contraceptives helped prevent 26 million unsafe abortions, 84 million unintended pregnancies, and the pregnancy-related deaths of 125,000 women. And that's just the beginning. Contraceptives can drive economic development and help girls, women, and families plan their futures.
Health workers backed by strong health systems are essential to providing comprehensive family planning information and most modern contraceptive methods. That's why we're headed to the 2018 International Conference on Family Planning. We're looking forward to sharing our experiences helping countries and communities move the needle on the use of family planning and look forward to learning from the thousands of family planning experts, activists, health officials, young people, and more.
Come to our presentations and events, and stop booth 15 & 16 in the exhibit hall to say hello.
