Newsweek Examines Melinda Gates' Focus On Family Planning Issues
"[I]n an exclusive interview with Newsweek," Melinda Gates, co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, discussed how "she has decided to make family planning her signature issue and primary public health a priority." Gates said, "My goal is to get this back on the global agenda," the news service writes. "Gates believes that by focusing on the lives of women and children, and by making it clear that the agenda is neither coercive population control nor abortion, the controversy over international family planning programs can be defused," according to Newsweek.
