What: PRB is launching a lower-fertility webinar series with a timely discussion on reproductive autonomy in a rapidly changing demographic landscape. As below-replacement fertility rates become more common—affecting two-thirds of the global population—experts are reevaluating how to support reproductive choices and ensure access to essential healthcare.

This webinar will explore policy solutions and healthcare strategies that help individuals and families achieve their intended family size. Discussions will cover contraceptive access, family planning services, and assisted reproductive technology, aiming to address the gap between desired and actual fertility rates worldwide.

The event will be moderated by Apoorva Jadhav of PRB and panelists include:

  • Fadekemi Akinfaderin, Fòs Feminista
  • Traci Baird, EngenderHealth
  • Alessio Cangiano, UNFPA
  • Jessica Grose, New York Times
  • Sanghamitra Singh, Population Foundation of India
  • Yohannes Dibaba Wado, African Population and Health Research Center
