Realising Commitments to Family Planning (RCFP)

Population Foundation of India (PFI) and The YP Foundation (TYPF) partnered together in 2019 for the development of adolescent and youth-friendly guidelines through an inclusive, evidence-based, rights-based, multi-stakeholder, and participatory bottom-up approach bringing together fragmented voices & efforts across and among young people, community members, civil society, donor agencies, frontline service providers as well as the government to define guidelines to address current gaps/barriers. Towards this end, PFI and TYPF are organizing multiple regional consultations which are being led by young people from the respective regions.

Under the guidance of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, TYPF and PFI organised seven consultations across India, engaging over 200 adolescents and young people.

Based on their inputs, we presented the Ministry with a set of recommendations across all thematics of the Rashtriya Kishor Swasthya Karyakram. These recommendations were then accepted by the Ministry and TYPF was then given the task of ensuring they were implemented by various state ministries and departments of health.
