Policy on the Sale of UNFPA-procured Reproductive Health Commodities

This policy establishes the parameters and processes for the effective management of reproductive health commodities that UNFPA transfers to implementing partners for sale by the implementing partner. UNFPA provides this option to regulate such sales and safeguard equitable access to quality-assured reproductive health commodities while strengthening the resilience of the commodity supply. The policy (a) identifies the types of UNFPA-procured reproductive health commodities that can be sold; (b) clarifies conditions where the sale of such commodities is permitted; (c) establishes how the sale prices are set; and (d) and outlines the permitted use of proceeds from the sale of such commodities.
