About the Scientific Subcommittee
Every other year since 2009, the International Conference on Family Planning has brought together the family planning community to share best practices, celebrate successes, and chart a course forward.
The International Conference on Family Planning 2022 invites abstracts on cutting-edge research, program, and advocacy results directed at enabling individuals throughout the world, especially in low-income areas, to achieve their contraceptive and reproductive intentions. Abstracts using strong scientific/evaluation methods will be given priority in the review and acceptance process.
Authors may submit each abstract in up to two tracks. Abstracts on cross-cutting topics, such as advocacy, should be submitted to the most relevant track(s). For questions about submitting an abstract, please contact abstracts@theicfp.org.

ICFP Scientific Abstract Submissions
The International Conference on Family Planning 2022 invites abstracts on cutting-edge research, program, and advocacy results directed at enabling individuals throughout the world, especially in low-income areas, to achieve their contraceptive and reproductive intentions.
Of particular interest are abstracts on research demonstrating how family planning is an integral part of universal health access and how family planning impacts the health, wealth, and autonomy of people and nations overall.
The ICFP also is an opportunity to showcase high-impact or best practices in family planning programs, policy, and service delivery. Abstracts using strong scientific/evaluation methods will be given priority in the review and acceptance process.
Thank you to all those who served on the scientific subcommittee for the 2022 ICFP!
