Mission and objectives

Le bureau pays de l'UNFPA à Djibouti agit en partenariat avec les gouvernements, d'autres institutions et la société civile afin de mettre en œuvre son mandat. Deux cadres guident notre mission: Le Programme d'action adoptée à la Conférence internationale sur la population et le développement de 1994 (CIPD) et les Objectifs de développement durable (ODD).

Les trois domaines privilégiés de notre mandat sont la santé sexuelle et reproductive, les droits de l’homme et l’égalité des sexes et les questions de population et de développement.

L'UNFPA apporte au pays son soutien technique et financier dans la collecte, l’analyse et la dissémination de données de population, afin de fournir des informations détaillées pour la planification, le suivi des progrès de façon à permettre des prises de décisions efficaces et efficients.
