NEW YORK, October 18 (C-Fam) The pro-abortion UN Population Fund (UNFPA) does not want pro-life critics in attendance when the agency convenes a conference in Nairobi in mid-November.
UNFPA and the government of Kenya are co-hosting the Nairobi Summit on ICPD25: Accelerating the Promise to mark the 25th anniversary of the original and very controversial Cairo Conference on Population and Development.
UNFPAs website claims the conference will offer an inclusive platform, bringing together governments, civil society, private sector organizations, womens groups and youth networks to discuss and agree on actions to accelerate implementation of the Cairo Program of Action.
Pro-life groups with UN consultative status are wondering if this inclusion includes them. According to Sharon Slater of Family Watch International, only one ostensibly pro-life group has been accepted to attend, the only one that also boasts a reproductive health program. None of the major pro-life groups at the UN have been accepted, including Slaters group, or C-Fam [publisher of the Friday Fax]. The Washington DC-based Heritage Foundation has not been approved either.
Slater told the Friday Fax, We are very concerned that many representatives from pro-life organizations in various countries who have tried to register for the upcoming Nairobi Summit have not had their registrations approved. This is very disturbing, especially since, UNFPA, lists as part of the organizing team for the Summit, many organizations which profit from or aggressively promote abortion including various Planned Parenthood entities, Women Deliver, Ipas (the manufacturer of Easy Grip handheld abortion device), and more.

Not that this will be a biased affair or anything.
PING!
disgusting
Get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US!
” and the UN out of the US!”
I do not think any other nation wants the responsibility or the headache of sponsoring them.
That is too bad, but not a problem.
Terminate the UN and force the UN to find a country that will take them!
