Title: The struggle for international consensus on population and development
Description: "The future of international population and reproductive health assistance has never been more uncertain. Funding levels are not keeping up with projected needs in family planning and reproductive health. The global HIV/AIDS epidemic appears to be redirecting resources away from these program areas. Recent calls to refocus development efforts on poverty alleviation have threatened funding for international family planning and other reproductive health programs. How could a field of endeavor typified by broad consensus in earlier decades become so contentious and polarized? The authors weigh the evidence and provide thoughts on the way forward to greater common purpose and effective program action."--Jacket.
