UNFPA, the United Nations sexual and
reproductive health agency, and the United
Nations Office for South-South Cooperation
(UNOSSC) are pleased to jointly present
this edition of South-South in Action (SSiA).
Launched in 2016, these reports are intended
to be a platform where South-South and
triangular cooperation partners can present
and share their successful development
solutions.
This edition highlights a sample of UNFPA’s
good practices of actual SSC partnerships
in the areas of its mandate. This set of 24
documented cases features practices in
sexual and reproductive health (SRH) and
reproductive rights, gender equality, youth
empowerment, and population data for
development, which include family planning,
maternal and child health, midwifery, obstetric
fistula, HIV and AIDS, SRH in humanitarian
settings, population data and population
ageing. Through publishing them, we are not
only celebrating the successes of UNFPA and
its partners in promoting South-South and
triangular cooperation but, more importantly,
also providing information of who is doing
what and where, thus helping to facilitate
more partnerships.
