The review process consists of the following:

      Reports and Publications –

A comprehensive Report covering the different issues mentioned above, in the context of ICPD indicators, will be prepared by resource persons / experts and organisations involved with the specific issue. It will reflect on the government’s stated commitment and civil society advocacy processes and outcome thus outlining the gains and the challenges in meeting the ICPD expectations.

Multilingual Fact Sheets will also be prepared on various themes. These will serve the purpose of informing various stakeholders about the key concerns for advocacy. 

Consultations / Roundtables  -

Series of Regional consultations will be organised to bring together civil society and government representatives to dialogue and debate on laws, policies and programmes in the context of ICPD +15. The regional meetings aim to highlight both the regional concerns as well as cross cutting themes. There will also be thematic round tables organized on issues that require consensus building between different stakeholders. The process will culminate in a multi-stakeholder, multi-theme National meeting.

Communication and Advocacy

A proactive communication and advocacy strategy will be adopted to reach out, inform and receive feedback from multiple stakeholders about the issues and concerns. In addition to print media, web enabled services such as a web site and list-servs will be utilised to make available relevant material from national and international sources. Additionally, media advocacy will be done through media briefings, identification of appropriate stories, press releases and so on.

Networking and Partnerships

The success of this overall process will depend to a great extent on the nature of partnerships and relationships that will be built with the different stakeholders – both government and civil society. We also wish to initiate a process of dialogue among various people’s movements on these issues.
