At the end of the 4 year funding period DFID expects UNFPA to be able to show evidence of progress being made against MDG 5, particularly in terms of improving access to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR); a reduction in the number of women and adolescent girls dying as a consequence of pregnancy or childbirth complications; and, an increase in the availability of modern contraceptives for those couples and women who express an unmet need for family planning.
