Population Institute Organizes "Speak Out" on 7 Billion Mark

In conjunction with the 7 billion population mark that was officially reached on October 31, 2011, the Population Institute organized a special Global Population Speak Out (GPSO).  The campaign was entitled, “7 Billion: It's Time to Talk,” and featured the launch of a new website to engage and inform the activist community in building support for universal access to family planning and reproductive health services. As part of the GPSO, representatives of the Population Institute participated in nearly two dozen radio and television shows, and authored several opinion (oped) pieces for publication in newspapers and on-line publications.
