The work of UNFPA is based on the premise that all human beings are entitled to equal rights and protections; thus, rather than regarding population problems as being merely about "numbers," UNFPA also addresses them as problems that are concerned with the "dignity" of each individual. UNFPA delivers sexual reproductive health (SRH) services in more than 150 countries worldwide, by supporting safer motherhood, family planning services, HIV and other STI prevention, as well as working to eliminate harmful practices such as gender-based violence (GBV), child marriage, female genital mutilation (FGM), etc.

As the only UN organization concerned with population matters, UNFPA leads comprehensive responses to population matters by addressing high-quality censuses and population data collection and analysis with regard to low fertility, ageing and other demographic issues.
