The Netherlands is a steadfast and generous partner of UNFPA. The country’s official development cooperation programme features sexual and reproductive health and rights as major targets for international assistance. The Netherlands’ policy and interests align with the work of UNFPA, in particular with regards to sexuality education and services for young people, access to contraceptives, antiretrovirals and other medications, sexual and reproductive health care as part of basic health systems, and respect for the rights of marginalized groups.

Specific areas of collaboration between UNFPA and the Netherlands include: family planning and reproductive health commodity security globally via the UNFPA Supplies Partnership; sexual and reproductive health services for adolescents and youth in Africa and the Arab States; strengthening inclusive social protection and health systems (including Mental Health and Psychosocial Support) in Sudan; and protecting women and girls from gender-based violence in Yemen.
