ABSTRACT

The Special Programme of Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction was established by WHO in 1972 to coordinate, promote, conduct, and evaluate international research in human reproduction. The Programme brings together administrators, policy-makers, scientists, clinicians and the community to identify priorities for research and for the strengthening, in developing countries, of research institutions. It marshals the scientific community to conduct research in human reproduction and to evaluate the results of research. The Programme also ensures coordination of efforts in this field and in the exchange of information, joint planning, and joint activities among national, nongovernmental, and international agencies involved in institution strengthening and research in human reproduction and family planning
