Algeria

Algeria has made solid progress over the decades in many areas, including the modernization of economic and social infrastructures and the reduction of poverty and unemployment. UNFPA support began in 1989, with early successes in integrating family planning into primary health care, expanding reproductive health services to meet the needs of all segments of the population, and promoting services such as screenings for women’s cancers. Initiatives also support HIV prevention, adolescent reproductive health, and the reduction of gender-based violence.
