Local Abstract: [PIP] The UN Population Fund (UNFPA) stressed the importance of reproductive health over birth control with regard to the population issue in the Philippines. Satish Mehra, UNFPA representative to the Philippines, expressed concern about the number of mothers and babies dying during childbirth and the annual abortion rate in the country. He mentioned that to prevent abortions, interventions should be focused on the education of women in safe methods of avoiding pregnancy and controlling fertility. He further added that if the country's problem had been addressed long before, the growth rate would not be as high as 2.32% and per capita income would be much higher. He also stressed that the UNFPA merely wanted to respond to those Filipino women with unmet need for family planning and did not intend to fight with the Church or use coercion. - Publication Date: Date Created: 20020927 Date Completed: 19991103 Latest Revision: 20071115
