These are the most recent figures; they are updated retrospectively every year.

IPPF is principally funded by governments through their overseas development aid budgets. The remainder of our funding comes from the European Commission, United Nations agencies, Foundations and private sources.

Income received from governments, foundations and other sources has increased over the past five years by 38%.

On average receipts from major donors have risen by 5.6% year on year in local currency terms. The slight
fall in income in 2008 is caused in part by the strengthening of the US dollar, which has impacted on the value of receipts in other currencies in the latter stages of the year.

This is coupled with a reduction in restricted income from
multilaterals and other sources.

Donors continue to support unrestricted activities with over 72% of funds being available for IPPF to allocate to Strategic Priority areas. 

We use this funding to support our Member Associations and in 2007 we provided grants to these autononomous organizations.

2008 Grants to Member Associations: $71.4 million
(Unrestricted and restricted)

We focus our work on five priority areas and all our money is invested and allocated to the achievement of our goals in these five areas.

Our aim is also to allocate resources on regional needs. For 2009 we budgeted unrestricted grants of US$53.4m to the following regions:

In 2008 we made restricted and unrestricted grants to regions as follows:
