UNFPA Comoros
The islands of Comoros have made progress in improving health care services and in decreasing maternal mortality. UNFPA initiatives help to extend services and to provide emergency obstetric care and family planning. UNFPA also aims to maintain the low prevalence of HIV/AIDS and to manage sexually transmitted infections. Other assistance focuses on increasing the availability and use of timely and reliable demographic data, as well as on integrating population variables into gender policies and development programmes.
