In 1994, the Population and Development International Conference held in Cairo specially established a goal of enjoys high quality reproductive health services in 2015. 180 countries attending the meeting acknowledged that this grand goal requires developed countries and developing countries, including government, non-government, and commercial and other parties.

Article 15.15 of the Program of Action refers to the role and contribution of the latter two, and they are the same civil society: strengthen cooperation between government, international organizations and private sectors, and determine the new field of cooperation; promote private The department is in providing services, producing and selling high-quality reproductive health and formation of high-quality reproductive health and landscaping goods in the world, so that the low-income groups of the population can get these supplies.

In addition, paragraph 15.16 of the Program of Action appeals to government, non-governmental organizations and international organizations "Strengthen cooperation with private and profit sectors in relevant population and sustainable development", including the way of profitability. And sell high quality contraceptive goods and provide quality services. Family planning is the basic part of reproductive health. If the demand for family planning is growing, the public resources that meet this need are restricted, so we must continue to get high quality contraceptive tools to actively cooperate with the private sector. Many strategies are needed to ensure that all parties of society get enough contraceptives. This includes providing free or high subsidies to the poor, as a social security network, providing social marketing activities to low-income groups, providing commercial markets to those who do not need to subsidize contraceptives. At the same time, the governments should create support for weak groups, enabling high-income groups using the products provided by the private sector through social market and business mechanisms. It is historical significance that the private business department has been playing has historical significance, including the necessity of strategic cooperation in all parties, has been widely recognized. The UN Population Foundation has made efforts to respond to the "Action Program" of the International Conference of the Population and Development of Chapter 15 on the role of the private profit department. After discussing the selected developing national governments, donors and hormonal contrast manufacturers in July 1997, the UN Population Foundation sent tasks to six countries (India, Indonesia, Thailand, Egypt, South Africa, and Ghana) in 1998. . The small teams collect information on the role of the business sector in contraceptive medicines that sell prices in people with payment capabilities, thus enabling governments to centrally supply rare resources to their poor and social vulnerable members. Interested parties in November 1998 in Bella, Italy, and inspect advances in action. They affirmed the contribution of the business world, and it is expected to expand this role. They suggested that the United Nations Population Fund will continue to act as an intermediary role, and its work must also be strengthened. In order to implement these activities, the meeting recommended that the United Nations Population Foundation strengthened the organization capabilities of this important work, and the UN Population Foundation should consider institutionalize this activity during its project development.
