Catherine Breen Kamkong, the UNFPA Bangladesh Representative, recently met with Swedish Ambassador Nicolas Weeks to explore opportunities for strengthening their collaborative efforts. The discussions focused on advancing sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), addressing harmful gender norms, and providing support to women and girls in both development and humanitarian contexts.
UNFPA Bangladesh expressed gratitude to the Government of Sweden and Sida (Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency) for their consistent partnership. This steadfast support includes significant contributions to midwifery-led care, initiatives aimed at preventing gender-based violence, and various programs that promote the rights and well-being of the most vulnerable populations.
