United Nations Population Fund: Country Profiles

2023

These country profiles developed by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) are part of a web portal that provides data for each country’s or territory’s need for UNFPA support based on a collection of six indicators: population, maternal and newborn health, sexual and reproductive health, education, fertility, and harmful practices. Users can also explore statistical dashboards by country for topics including adolescent and youth outcomesfemale genital mutilationmidwiferyworld population data and trends, and intimate partner violence. The dashboards provide overall information about the global impact of UNFPA’s support in each region, country, and territory.

The United Nations Population Fund is the United Nations organization focused primarily on sexual and reproductive health. The overall mission of UNFPA is to deliver a world in which every pregnancy is wanted, every woman has a safe childbirth, and every young person has the ability to reach their potential. The organization focuses on supporting women in a variety of ways, from promoting reliable access to contraceptive methods to promoting the health of pregnant women to eliminating female genital mutilation. UNFPA works with policymakers, governments, and organizations to further develop laws and practices supporting sexual and reproductive health.
