We Made It a Charter: IPPF’s Declaration of Values
On November 20, 2025, at IPPF’s General Assembly in Bali, our Federation unanimously adopted its first ever IPPF Charter of Values, delivering on our collective commitment to re-examine our principles, reignite our shared spark, and push the line for justice, equality and bodily autonomy. Born from the voices and courage of our members across the Federation, this Charter is both a mirror and a map. It tells us who we are and where we stand. Together with our new Brand, it is our fire that refuses to be extinguished. The Charter sets out seven values that define our identity and purpose: Dignity, Equality, Justice, Pleasure, Community, Integrity, and Resilience. They are not abstract ideals. They are our commitment to action. They show who we stand with, and what we stand for. Louder, prouder, and bolder. United. IPPF’s new Charter of Values grounds us in a simple but demanding truth: sexual and reproductive rights are universal human rights. It states that equality is intersectional, feminist, anti-racist, and anti-ableist. That the struggle for Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights is inseparable from the global struggle for justice and liberation. The Charter affirms that pleasure – in all its forms - is a right, not a privilege. That safe abortion for all is our horizon, and LGBTQ+ rights, the rights of women and girls, Indigenous communities and those of all marginalised communities are fundamental to freedom itself. It acknowledges that oppression is upheld and sustained by colonialism and imperialism, and our duty to dismantle this. It calls us to work collectively with courage, with love, with solidarity. And it holds us accountable, first and foremost, to the individuals and communities we work with. This Charter is a compass for our movement. It unites us and invites others to join. It is proof that no matter what we face, however they attack, wherever they advance, we will be there. This is who we have always been: fierce defenders of dignity, equality, and justice. Now, we have made it a Charter. We are IPPF. We are the fire.
