Its goal is to make sure that the Action Program of the United Nations Conference on Population and Development (ICPD), which was held in Cairo in 1994, is carried on and put into action. The action program notably included recommendations on law and health as far as sexuality, reproduction, women empowerment, ageing and migrations are concerned.

Since it was created, our Federation has been a membre of the IPPF European Network. We back, diffuse and sign their campaigns. Nowadays, the action is mainly based on advocacy at the level of the European Union.

As far as the development of new policies within the organisation is concerned, we can underline the importance of young poeple taking part in programs on reproductive health.

We support and take part in the World Walk. In 2005 a coordination cell was created in Brussels to support WWW’s claims to which we add ours : a better access to contraceptives. On 8 march 2007 a women parliament will gather.
