Throughout 2023 and 2024, CEPIA, represented by Jacqueline Pitanguy, together with REBRAPD, represented by Richarlls Martins who is also part of our Assembly of Associates, has participated in numerous meetings involving government bodies, UNFPA and civil society organizations, with the objective of promoting the creation of the National Population and Development Commission, CNPD, which was abolished during the Bolsonaro government. The CNPD plays an important role in guiding the government on issues related to population and development, preparing reports to be presented by Brazil in international forums, carrying out research, among other functions. We are happy to inform you that the CNPD, with equal representation from the government and civil society, was established by Decree 11,966 of March 27, 2024.
