It is a great pleasure and a privilege for me to be writing my first message as the Chair of the Governing Board of the Population Foundation of India.

With the passing of our distinguished friend and colleague Justice Leila Seth on 5 May 2017, the Governing Board, and the PFI itself, has lost a valued colleague of over twenty years. Her clarity of thought and precision of speech will be missed. Her commitment to gender justice will remain as a watchword in all that the PFI attempts in the future.

Globally, we are at a crucial point in our journey towards the FP2020 goals, well past the halfway mark and edging closer to the deadline. The 2017 FP Summit held on World Population Day, 11 July, in London, assessed the progress made and the acceleration required to reach the FP2020 goal of providing 120 million women and girls with access to contraceptives by 2020 as also the Sustainable Development Goal related to ensuring universal access to reproductive health, including family planning, by 2030. The occasion provided a timely reminder of the action and resources required to fast-track progress towards both. Many of FP2020’s 38 partner countries renewed their commitments to accelerate progress on family planning and four new countries joined the FP2020 partnership.

For India, the year was remarkable, with some significant milestones in the field of reproductive and sexual health. The most notable of these was the Supreme Court verdict on the Devika Biswas vs. Union of India case in September 2016. A landmark in family planning legislation, it provides a solid foundation for adopting a human rights-based approach to work on sexual and reproductive health and rights.

4 I POPULATION FOUNDATION OF INDIA I ANNUAL REPORT The Union Cabinet approved the National Health Policy, 2017 (NHP, 2017) on March 15, 2017. The new policy is tailored to address the existing and emerging challenges within the overarching goal of achieving ‘comprehensive and universal wellness’. Unlike the earlier efforts that focused only on sick-care services, the NHP lays emphasis on preventive and curative measures. Its key features include achieving universal health coverage and delivering quality health care services to all at an affordable cost; reaching out especially to the underprivileged and marginalised groups; exploring possibilities of engaging with the private sector as a strategic partner; promoting care that is patient-centric and quality driven; establishing a Public Health Management Cadre (PHMC) in all states; and raising public health expenditure to 2.5 per cent of the GDP in a timebound manner (by 2025).

We also welcome the release of the National Family Health Survey 2015-16 (NFHS-4) which shows an improvement in many health indicators, including the Total Fertility Rate (TFR), literacy levels, age at marriage, and numbers of institutional deliveries in public facilities. In a first, the NFHS makes available district-level estimates for many important indicators. Given the wide intra-state variations, the disaggregated data at this level will not only help in a better understanding of the data but also in framing future policy and formulating programmes.

Finally, a positive enabling policy environment continues to be nurtured. The Government of India and state governments continue to value partnerships with civil society organisations and research institutes, while exploring potential partnerships with the private sector. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) has been particularly open to taking steps to meet current demands of increasing the method mix of contraceptives by introducing three new methods in the last couple of years. However, allocating sufficient resources is the key to successfully carry forward the health and family planning agenda. At the same time, we need to remember, that family planning is as much a man’s responsibility as it is a woman’s; and that 70% of India’s population is in the reproductive age group. This needs to be factored into policies and budgets.

I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to the staff of PFI and our many partners, who include the central and state governments, donors, implementing agencies and supporters who believe in PFI and its work. Without their support, we would certainly not have been able to achieve all that we have. On behalf of the Governing Board, it gives me great pleasure to thank them all.

Keshav Desiraju Chairperson, Governing Board, PFI
