CV NEWS FEED // A conservative European non-profit organization has published a new book exposing the World Health Organization (WHO)’s agenda to promote “sexual freedom” through its Human Reproduction Project (HRP).
The European Centre for Law and Justice (ECLJ), a conservative non-profit organization, has published a new reference book, titled “70 Years of Population Policy” History of the Human Reproduction Program of the World Health Organization 1950-2020, tracking WHO’s wide promotion of contraception, abortion, and sterilization procedures through its sponsorship of HRP.
Founded in 1948, WHO is the United Nations agency responsible for “connect[ing] nations, partners and people to promote health,” on a global scale. WHO’s website states that the it is committed to”promote[ing] healthier lives – from pregnancy care through old age.”
As ECLJ points out in its press release, HRP was sponsored by WHO following the publication of American biologist Paul R. Ehrlich’s 1968 best seller, The Population Bomb—which claimed that world population growth would lead to famine by the 1970s and 80s. The book further asserted that if population growth was not drastically limited, hundreds of millions of people would die, and humanity would likely collapse in a thermonuclear war.
“For over 5 decades,” the release stated, “the HRP has taken action to develop abortifacients and contraceptives widely used today,” and has solidified their place in society “by disseminating a discourse based on human rights to make them accepted and commonplace.”
ECLJ noted that HRP “began its activities with millions of dollars” from several Western countries and left-leaning private foundations, such as Ford, Buffet, and the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF).
Since its founding, the release continued, HRP has successfully disseminated numerous guidelines which have “influenc[ed] public policy on sexual and reproductive health,” and contributed to the development of sterilization products, the morning-after pill, intrauterine devices (IUDs), and the chemical abortion pill.
The release continued:
The HRP has thus played a key role in the development of these methods, both in terms of product and protocol development, and in terms of social acceptability, and is continuing to work on other methods such as contraceptive vaccines designed to prevent fertilization or implantation.
“The UN has been committed to a strategy of population control since the 1950s,” ECLJ stated in the conclusion of its synthetic report of the book. “This stemmed from the fear that population growth would be detrimental to the economic development of mankind.”
However, as the ECLJ stated, Erhlich’s predictions regarding the so-called “population bomb,” have proved false, as “humanity is far more populous than it would have been at that time, even without population control,” adding:
The question is whether demographics were and are the real problem, when, for example, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) estimated in 2021 that 17% of total food production is wasted.82 Similarly, the aging of the world’s population, due in part to a falling birth rate, is threatening the global economy,83 contradicting the stated aims of population control.
“Is the UN’s aim really the prosperity of mankind, or rather the emergence of a new human nature?” the ECLJ asked, concluding: “Whatever the case, it is essential to raise awareness of the HRP and its work, so as to remove its disguise of neutrality and reduce its influence along with that of its funders.”
