IPPF has been on a journey of change and renewal over the past few years. Responding to increased global opposition, the need to support activists and leaders in increasingly hostile contexts, and the desire to move closer to its members and partners, this process of renewal culminated in the adoption of Strategy 2028.

To support the implementation of Strategy 2028 and to guide the Federation forward, the Board of Trustees agreed that IPPF should develop a shared Charter of Values that can act as a Southern star and as guard rails for the Federation’s integrity.  It will set out what it means to be part of the IPPF Family and shape our collective identity.

The refreshed values and identity that will be defined by this process will then be reflected in a new, updated IPPF global rebrand.

The process to develop both the Charter of Values and the IPPF Global Rebrand was launched at the IPPF General Assembly in November 2022. The Charter will be adopted by a virtual General Assembly. It will be signed by all members and the Secretariat whether grant receiving or not. It doesn’t replace policy, accreditation standards or outline benefits of membership but summarises the core values that lie at the heart of the Federation.
