UNFPA (United Nations Population Fund) merupakan badan Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa (PBB) yang berfokus pada kesehatan seksual dan reproduksi serta hak-hak reproduksi manusia. Misi utama UNFPA adalah menciptakan dunia di mana setiap kehamilan diinginkan, setiap persalinan berlangsung aman, dan setiap potensi kaum muda dapat diwujudkan sepenuhnya. UNFPA aktif mendukung negara-negara di berbagai belahan dunia dalam meningkatkan akses terhadap layanan kesehatan reproduksi, termasuk keluarga berencana, persalinan yang aman, dan pencegahan serta penanganan kekerasan berbasis gender.
Sebagai bagian dari sistem PBB, UNFPA memiliki peran strategis dalam mempercepat pencapaian Tujuan Pembangunan Berkelanjutan (SDGs), khususnya di bidang kesehatan, kesetaraan gender, dan pemberdayaan perempuan. Dalam situasi darurat kemanusiaan, UNFPA turut memberikan layanan tanggap darurat berupa penyediaan paket layanan awal minimum (Minimum Initial Service Package/MISP) untuk kesehatan reproduksi dan perlindungan dari kekerasan seksual. UNFPA juga aktif berkolaborasi dengan pemerintah, lembaga internasional, dan organisasi masyarakat sipil untuk memperjuangkan hak-hak perempuan dan remaja di seluruh dunia, termasuk di Indonesia.
