world population growth — including calls for giving women greater access to abortion and adolescents to sex education Women's groups of Friday hailed the agreement as a giant advance beyond what was agreed to at the landmark 1994 UN population conference in Cairo because it compels governments to take action to increase and improve access to reproductive health care Approval came despite
