15.17. Non-profit and profit-oriented organizations and their networks should
develop mechanisms whereby they can exchange ideas and experiences in the
population and development fields with a view to sharing innovative approaches
and research and development initiatives. The dissemination of information and
research should be a priority.
15.18. Governments are strongly encouraged to set standards for service
delivery and review legal, regulatory and import policies to identify and
eliminate those policies that unnecessarily prevent or restrict the greater
involvement of the private sector in efficient production of commodities for
reproductive health, including family planning, and in service delivery.
Governments, taking into account cultural and social differences, should
strongly encourage the private sector to meet its responsibilities regarding
consumer information dissemination.
15.19. The profit-oriented sector should consider how it might better assist
non-profit non-governmental organizations to play a wider role in society
through the enhancement or creation of suitable mechanisms to channel financial
and other appropriate support to non-governmental organizations and their
associations.
15.20. Private-sector employers should continue to devise and implement special
programmes that help meet their employees’ needs for information, education and
reproductive health services, and accommodate their employees’ needs to combine
work and family responsibilities. Organized health-care providers and health
insurers should also continue to include family planning and reproductive health
services in the package of health benefits they provide.
