Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) Planning Committee update

On June 20, the LAC Planning Committee met by teleconference for the second time to identify and develop specific themes and issues to be addressed at the next membership meeting in October. Over the coming weeks, concept papers will be prepared on five specific themes, which will form the main part of the meeting: 1) history of family planning in LAC, 2) resource mobilisation, 3) procurement, 4) health sector reform (relating to either commodity security or supply chain), and 5) cross-cutting themes. In mid-July, Planning Committee coordinator, Kevin Pilz, will send the Secretariat a consolidated proposal for the whole event, which can then be submitted to the Executive Committee as it reviews other proposals for inclusion in the agenda.
