United Nations Commission on Population and Development
The goal of the Commission on Population and Development is the follow-up to the implementation of the Programme of Action of the International Conference on Population and Development.[2] The Commission would monitor, review and assess the implementation of the Programme of Action at the regional, national and international levels and advise the Economic and Social Council on issues such as populations issues and trends, integrating population and development strategies, and on population and related development policies and programmes.[3] It would also provide advice and assistance to the United Nations System, governments and other organizations on population and development related efforts.
The Commission is composed of 47 Member States (for 2006) elected by the Economic and Social Council for a period of four years on the basis of geographic distribution. Representatives should have a relevant background in population and development. It met typically every two or three years until 1994, after which it has met once a year.
The United Nations Population Division is the main Secretariat unit assisting the Commission, compiles and analyzes data on populations aging.
