Gender Action is deepening our 2007 Mapping Report which demonstrated a decline in World Bank and regional development bank loans and grants for reproductive health and HIV/AIDS. We recently launched an advocacy campaign to pressure IFIs to increase their low-level spending on these issues; ensure a gender-sensitive focus in their investments; and remove loan conditions which impede progress towards achieving the reproductive health and HIV/AIDS Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Please show your support by joining Gender Action’s Advocacy Campaign to Increase and Improve IFI Funds for Reproductive Health and HIV/AIDS by signing your organization onto this statement: "LEVERAGING IFI FUNDS FOR REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH & HIV/AIDS"
