Global Citizen

Two women speak using microphones.

The partnership with Global Citizen is a reach partnership to amplify UNFPA’s work on sexual and reproductive health and gender equality and to unlock new resources in support of the global agenda for women and girls.

UNFPA is part of the Recovery Plan for the World, a campaign coordinated by Global Citizen to end COVID-19 and kick-start a global recovery. Women and girls were particularly affected by the pandemic, and equality must be at the core of the global reset. UNFPA and Global Citizen work hand in hand to approach private-sector entities to increase their support of the agency’s work. Global Citizen also shares assets produced by UNFPA through their wide-reaching platform of supporters and high-profile ambassadors.
