8:45 – 10:15 Investing in Women’s Reproductive Health Equals Investing in Economic and Social Progress
for Everyone
Achieving gender equality requires addressing the reproductive health needs of women.
However, despite improvements in gender equality in other domains, too little progress has
been achieved on this critical front. The lack of investment in reproductive health is a missed
opportunity for development. This panel will review the economic benefits of investing in
reproductive health, including improved labour productivity, reduced out-of-pocket
expenditures, enhanced the human capital of future generations, and increased economicgrowth. Investing in reproductive health is smart economics for policy makers in developing
countries, but obstacles still exist. We will explore proven and promising policy levers to
accelerate progress.

11:30 – 13:00 Investing in Girls
It is universally recognised that girls’ access to education is key to their future contributions to
society and their own sense of fulfillment. Enabling girls to participate fully in all aspects of
family, political and community life is critical to gender equality. The panel will explore
continuing barriers and challenges to ensuring that every girl has access to an education and the
experiences and rights that will enable her to flourish.

14:45 – 16:15 Women's Health
The reproductive health paradigm established at Cairo called for a holistic women-centred
approach to achieve comprehensive reproductive health care. Over the past years, we have
come to understand that broader issues of women’s health also need to be seen as part of that
comprehensive approach. The dramatic increase in non-communicable diseases from cancers to

diabetes affects reproductive health. Women’s mental health, infertility and sexuality are all still
neglected. The disproportionate number of women in poverty is a further health challenge. A life
cycle approach to women’s health is sorely needed. This panel will explore those challenges, and
ways in which women’s health needs can better be meet.

16:30 – 17:55 Women Lead - Opportunities and Challenges
There is no doubt that substantial progress has been made in women’s leadership, not just in
traditional areas such as health and education but as leaders in finance, government and
communications, and as cultural icons. Younger women can rise to leadership sooner. Yet, even
the world’s most powerful women speak of challenges and of being ignored. This will be a livelyand intimate look at how women leaders see their own leadership. It will also explore the latest
in leadership theories, with the panelists’ perceptions of what makes for great leaders in the
21st Century.

14:45 – 16:15 Presidential Session: Ending Violence Against Women
Worldwide attention has been focused on the increasingly virulent attacks on women. In
Pakistan, Malala Yousafzai was shot in the head and neck in an assassination attempt by Taliban.
Her crime: advocating for girls education. In India, a young medical student was raped and
murdered by a gang of five assailants. Every 20 minutes, a woman in India is raped. Since the
1990s, successive waves of murders of young women have left hundreds of women dead. In
South Africa, a woman is killed by an intimate partner every eight minutes. Women Deliver is
dedicated to ending violence against women. This panel will discuss what is happening,
why, and what can be done to end it. The panel includes leaders in the efforts to end violence
from India, Afghanistan, and the United States. Bachi Karkaria, columnist from The Times of

16:30 – 17:55 Contraception Contextualized: Advocating for the Core Values of the Post – 2015 Agenda
The renewed effort to ensure that 120 million women and couples have access to the
contraception they want by 2020 has reinvigorated the sexual and reproductive health and
rights community. Now, we need to inspire the larger community focused on the post 2015
agenda to join with us as we need to join with them. The effort to make contraception available
is not a stand-alone agenda. It’s part of our commitment to reduce poverty, enhance human
rights, feed the hungry, give water to the thirsty and share the wealth we have with those whoneed it. Doing this requires innovative ways of thinking and acting. Hear how social innovators,
powerf ul advocates and provocative thinkers get the messages out and change people’s minds

9:00 – 10:30 The Development Agenda Through a Woman’s Lens
We are moving toward the adoption of new goals for development, framed under the theme of
a sustainable world. Yet, the goals established in various UN documents such as the ICPD
Program of Action, The Beijing Platform of Action and the MDGs – especially those related to
reproductive health –are far from achieved; In some cases they are still controversial and
inadequate for the challenges of the future. How can the new development goals adequatelyaddress women’s rights and needs? This panel will provide some answers.

13:15 – 14:45 Plenary Lunch: How to Think About Population, Sustainability andWomen’s RightsFrom the first conference on population and development in Bucharest in 1974, the question of
whether population growth contributes to poverty and environmental degradation has been
contested. The development of a woman-centred human rights approach to population at the
Cairo conference was lauded by some as a paradigm shift and by others as diminishing the
financial commitment to reproductive health. The increasing interest in reducing the negative
effects of climate change has opened the debate once again. This panel will discuss that debate

The World We Want is not just a slogan—it represents the vision each of us has for the kind of
future we need. For no group is it more real than those under the age of 30 who will live out the
lives today’s leaders initiate in the post-2015 agenda. On this panel, young leaders will share
their vision for the world they want.
16:15 – 17:40 Closing Plenary: Creating a Just and Sustainable World: A Call to Action
As the conference comes to a close, the key question of equality for women and girls will be
highlighted. In a just and sustainable world, girls will be as valued as boys and women’s
intelligence, skills, compassion, will be as honoured as that of men. This panel will examine the
barriers to equality but also point the way to achieving a just and sustainable world.
