Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2) and the motion adopted by the committee on Monday, June 20, 2022, the committee is resuming its study of sexual and reproductive health and rights of women globally.
It is my pleasure to welcome to the committee three witnesses. First, we have Ms. Krystyna Kacpura, who is with the Foundation for Women and Family Planning. Second, we have Ms. Julie Théroux-Séguin, who is with the Centre for International Studies and Cooperation. Last, we have Dr. Theresa Okafor, who is with the Foundation for African Cultural Heritage.
Welcome to all three of you.
I'd like to make a few comments for the benefit of the witnesses who are joining us by video conference today. Please wait until I recognize you by name before speaking. You should be clicking on the microphone icon to activate your mike, and please mute yourselves when you are not speaking. Interpretation for those on Zoom is at the bottom of your screen, and you have the choice of floor, English or French. For those in the room, you can use the earpiece and select the desired channel. This is a reminder to all three witnesses that all comments should be addressed through the chair. You will each be provided five minutes. After the five minutes for all three are over, we will go to the members for questions. Should I put this sign up, that means you should be wrapping up either your comments or your response to questions within 30 seconds.
First, we will go to Ms. Kacpura. You have five minutes.
