State of World Population 2023

1 Apr 2023

This report has been published by United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) in April 2023. This edition of the yearly publication, the first of which was released in the year 1978, is titled “8 Billion Lives, Infinite Possibilities: the case for rights and choices”. The report calls for expanding efforts to bolster bodily autonomy and support sexual and reproductive health rights for all. The latest data from 68 countries reveals that as high as 44 per cent of partnered women cannot make decisions about healthcare, sex, or contraception. The report states that the right to make free and informed choices about health and bodies is a primarily conversation towards more equalised population dynamics. This 192-page document is divided into five chapters: Our Human Family, 8 Billion Strong (Chapter 1); Too Many? (Chapter 2); Too Few? (Chapter 3); The State of Reproductive Choice (Chapter 4); Rights Are the Key (Chapter 5).
