Technical experts should come from the health, youth, community development sectors. Also slated to attend are representatives of a number of Family Planning Associations from the Caribbean, as well as religious, parental groups, health, education and youth sectors, as well as the international donor and NGO community. Funding Funding will be provided for all country delegates.
Limited funds are available for a select number of specially invited delegates based in the region.
Other interested persons wishing to attend may register as observers but must fund their own travel and accommodation.
